| This is the before pruning the wild rose bushes.... |
 |
| They grew out of control and over our 6 foot wall... |
 |
| Cutting up the trims to fill our garbage can was lots of work. |
 |
| The last bush is the yellow rose of Texas... |

PRUNING Time...
With all our warm temperatures and spring rains, it became necessary to think about pruning the rose bushes. They were huge from not pruning last year when we had lots of roses. We'll see what happens this year. Hubby loves to prune anything so I watched with a little fear and trepidation...as he went to work with lots of energy. I wonder sometimes if we don't get pruned in our own lives and wonder about the results...more on that later as I'm writing a poem on personal pruning by a wise gardener...lol! I worked on weeding the large strawberry patch next to the roses and can hardly move today...getting old!
