I call it "the house eater". I was warned but really did not believe it. I have to trim it back some in the fall and I did not do a very good job this last fall. The 2nd year, a contractor that treated the woods on my arbor was supposed to cut the twine and take the roses off but did not do it. It burned the plant badly. I really thought it would never recover again, but look at it today. I can smell the roses from the street and my arbor sits pretty far back off the street.

So if anyone out there going to plant a New Dawn, you need a strong support system for it.
