Here’s a front view of the two-story-high rambling rose that fell off the wall of my friend’s house in a storm, destroying the trellis. Suggestions? #notmygarden 🥀

A nice, new trellis seems indicated at this point. A steel one.

This two-story-high rambling rose fell off my friend’s house in a storm, destroying the trellis. The roots are a little pulled up in back. Suggestions? #notmygarden 🥀

I was thinking to prop it up from underneath to protect the roots during the first flush of bloom. Then prune off the old canes to leave half a dozen young ones for mounting to a new support system.

Larvae of the Roseslug Sawfly (Endelomyia aethiops) resemble caterpillars 🌹 🐛 🥀 They strip rose leaves down to lacy skeletons in no time flat! #wildlifewednesday
