wayward climbing rose
I have a beautiful climbing rose called Summer Wine. It used to be trained on an arched trellis. When the trellis disintegrated it was removed and a new support put in at right angles to the original and I tied the rose loosely to that. Most of the branches tied in became spindly and weak but all new shoots shot upwards vertically into the sky. I am now left with a beautiful rose growing ever upwards with no support, so waving about in the wind. It clearly didn't like the new support so what now? Anybody got a revolutionary idea?
