Oh Cat, you just do not hang out too close to your rose bushes! LOL. I have so many and they are planted so close together, I get creamed when I have to get in the center to prune them. But nothing is as gorgeous in the spring when they glow with the freshness of all new leaves, canes and of course blooms. I have more roses than anything else. And this winter when many of my various bloomers bit the dust, the cold only served to make my roses rise up from winter with such vigor and beauty, I was in heaven.

Karen, your DH is a keeper for sure. Jackhammering holes in concrete is an act of true love! Is crown of thorns a euphorbia? Here there is such a show going on with new euphorbias in new colors and huge blooms. I will look for a picture to see if we are talking about the same thing.

AuntB, I am not pitching it but it may vacate this life on its own. My winters are so wet and cool the hibiscus hate them. But only the hibiscus in my yard. LOL Neighbors have huge bushes of them.

Here is part of my rose garden for a second in time this last spring. It has not looked as good since. LOL
