It came with the house, we didn't know what it was and it just kept growing and growing and got super tall, making a mess on our roof with its leaves. This spring we cut it all down to 1 foot tall. All the trunks are showing new growth. We plant to maintain it as a 3-4 foot hedge NOT a 20 foot forest! It is not invasive here, it just grows fairly quickly. <br />Happy Bloom Day and may the rest of the month also be filled with blooms.Sharon B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03921173805185993288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1749996258947137504.post-19629104853097011842015-05-15T08:49:20.383-05:002015-05-15T08:49:20.383-05:00I have never heard of the red rose white rose stor...I have never heard of the red rose white rose story but then I grew up with only Mothering Sunday and there was no father's day.I wonder how many still follow your childhood tradition.
