This past summer was the best my garden has ever looked. The roses finally looked like they did in my imagination when I first planted them. I am now in the process of cutting them all back to one or two feet high. I have removed Cafe, Benjamin Britten, and Radio Times. Red Eden will also be going. I will replace all the mulch and give the garden a general tidy up. I know it's not the right time to be doing this (late autumn here) but I won't have time later in the year. I have a new battery-operated chainsaw so it's not going to be a pretty process, but it will be quick. This photo was taken at midsummer.
