The Thursday Theme for this week is Think Pink! To find pink at my house I need go no farther than the corner of my garage. This vigorous rose is a Climbing New Dawn. It is a delicate shell pink and has a faint but pleasant rose scent.
This is an amazingly hardy rose. I started this one from a cutting about 15 years ago. My mother was given one of these when I was a boy. She planted it beside a little shed in the back yard and it grew up and over the shed into the alley behind it. Released in 1930, this very healthy climbing rose is a repeat blooming sport of Dr. W. Van Fleet. It blooms profusely in the spring and intermittently over the rest of the year.

The smell must be lovely! I love this shade of pink.
I love how you let it take over a corner of your garage opening.
Yogi - When it finishes the initial bloom cycle I will do some pruning and tie back the loose ends but for now I will just enjoy it. You are welcome to some cuttings.
Beautiful climbing rose BUT how do you get your car into the garage?
I love this particular color and the way this bush crawls. How lucky for you the climate in Texas favors a year-long bloom.
Best TT color I've seen so far.
You have a green thumb when it comes to roses. These are beautiful.
I imagine that you stop to smell the roses quite often. :)

Very pretty rambler. Does it have a perfume? So few roses do these days. I'm jealous of your spring mornings as we descend into early chilliness in winter!
This is a gorgeous looking plant. So healthy.
Wow! How beautiful! You must have a really green thumb!
My post for Pink, close to my heart, is up here.
