Nad, I'm not sure that you are clear on what a gardening group does.
When a poster asks for help with growing a plant, you're not supposed to
tell them how to put out a contract on it. He might decide it easier to
keep the rose, and get rid of the wife. Oh, what a wicked web we weave .
LOL
He will find out eventually who is correct about this thorny subject
Hmmm....
Ok then, try this idea...
You do not need a trellis. It is possible to keep that rose to a manageable
size like four to five feet high only each and every year. The plant will
grow around two to three feet a year. One can prune the plant down, let's
say to only one to two feet high in the fall. Cut the branches just above
new side shoots. If shoots are coming out from the root stock, then cut the
shoot off from the root stock.
Personally... Peonies are better than roses without the thorns
I say eradicate that species called the "Rose" from the earth.... Mugging
going on...
NOOOOO.... Then muffles... Then silence...
We have 2 climbimg roses. One has a large yellow rose that has produced
a stalk, and, except for the fact that it throws off long canes,
resembles a "normal" rose. The other climbing rose grows like a bramble
with small pink roses. These are my wife's projects, and were planted
several decades ago. I have no idea how they came to their present
states.

America is not broke. The country is awash in wealth and cash.
It's just that it's not in your hands. It has been transferred, in the
greatest heist in history, from the workers and consumers to the banks
and the portfolios of the uber-rich.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children. This is not a way of life at all in any true sense. Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.
