Yeah, it's pretty tiny and fragile looking right now. This is the first year I cut back the actual bush quite a bit for the winter. It is growing fairly well though, so I'm not certain if I should mess with it at all.

Out of curiosity, are roes prone to shifting colours? This rose (a miniature winter hardy) started out white with pale pink edges The flowers this year are starting to go almost solid pink, and much brighter. I moved to a new location and I'm wondering if the rose it just doing that because it's a hybrid plant, or if it's shifting from sitting next to another, different rose bush that is dark red.

I know I planted a mix of white and purple tulips in my old garden, and a couple years later they all came up white and purple striped from mixing with each other. It was neat.
