As promised, Sweet Briar Rose as of yesterday
Here are the shots I promised. I overcontrasted them so that you can
pick out the plant easier. The vertical cane in the second shot (the one just right of center) is the 8 foot tall one that I discussed yesterday. The others are almost the same height. The round top of the bush is almost 7 feet tall. After this season, I expect it to be around 7 1/2 feet to 8 feet tall. Note that I've pruned a bit underneath, esepcially on the left hand side of the plant. http://mywpages.comcast.net/ddweil2/SweetBriarNow.jpg http://mywpages.comcast.net/ddweil2/SweetBriarNow1.jpg |

If you look at some of the bottom canes, you'll see that they're bare. Since they are fairly spindly as well, they will probably be lopped off before fall... |
