Approaching winter last year, there were a few buds on my Wild Eve rose. I expected them to rot and come to nothing, so have not paid any attention to them. I'm afraid my garden is like a jungle over winter as I leave everything untidy for the insects and the birds (and it saves me doing any work). So imagine my surprise when I looked out of the window today and noticed one bud had actually bloomed. Ok, it looks a bit chewed and ragged, but it's a welcome sight. Roll on spring.

There are a couple of buds here and there which look promising. How lovely! This image below is Wild Eve in summer. She's a beautiful David Austin rose.
