Had to let the cleaners in at the old place & my fav rose was in bloom. It was on the edge of death when we moved in, having had the last rites, but over the years, it regained its will to live. Much smaller than the others, of course, I was tempted to dig it up & steal it, as it'd been so neglected before. But I didn't. However today, I broke off a cutting, just in case. Never wanted to before, as it was so small, but last chance & all. We'll see. #gardening@gardening
