My attempts at growing this gorgeous rambler espalier on my back fence hasn't quite gone as I envisaged. More down to my lack of knowledge on how roses grow than anything else I suspect.
Still, plenty of flowers though. I'll give this a good cut right back and try something different I think.

In a few places it's not so neat and there are a couple of horizontals missing on the other side. Once I get it filled out more on the other side I suspect I'll be much happier with it.
Thanks for you lovely comments they are appreciated, it's just me focusing on the negative rather than giving myself a pat on the back for perseverance :)

My first reaction was the same as C'karens. I dk how long you have had it there but I would think it is as good as anything else you might plant. Patience is a virtue. You have the skill give the plant a year or two to develop, then you will be kept very busy cutting it back. It is beautiful.

It looks lovely! You've tied it In beautifully...along horizontals to promote flowering, and it is flowering beautifully! So why aren't you pleased Angie?
