Rose Amongst Thorns

The garden is running away with me. I have enlisted help. Found this Rose (Zephryn Drouhain - not sure of the spelling) I planted it years ago and thought it had been swallowed up by the Blackberry bushes, but against all odds it has re appeared. Mark chopped it down one year pronouncing it a sucker (no prickly bits) but this Rose doesn't have prickly bits. Needless to say his gardening exploits were short lived.

Another stunning day - hot and sunny. It's a dust bowl out there.
