I don’t know the name of this beautiful rose. It has struggled so much that at times that I was certain I needed to pull it out and plant a more hardy rose in its place. This year it has surprised me with added height and beautiful blooms – a hopeful sign it’s here to stay.

Backyard in bloom with Knock Out rose bushes and a Don Juan rose centered on the stone post.
Sweetly scented Confederate jasmine reaching for a white trellis that is an unrealized dream for now.
Thank you for stopping in to visit our May garden!
