And you were expecting a car! :icon_tongue:

When Sarah and I first moved into our home over three years ago I built her a rose garden (yes, I actually did promise her a rose garden) and one of the first ones in was this Chrysler Imperial rose.

It was created in 1952 as a marketing tool for Chrysler. In 1954 it was used exclusively on Chrysler's float for the Rose Bowl parade. It's been around ever since, outlasting the badge it was named for.

Very nice Robert....
Ok... I gotta say it....
Does it have a torqueflite? :icon_razz:

No, what it actual has is:

Aphids. Garlic planted to get rid of them.

Black spot. Hitting the garden once a month with fungi oil to get rid of it.

and Japanese Beetles. Damned things love to eat the blossoms. This is the second, maybe third, decent bloom I've had all year thanks to the destructive little bastards.

It's also got constant pruning, cow s*** for food, thorns as long as your thumb nails, weeds which try to grow next to it, and neighborhood kids who know I'll stomp 'em in the ground if they go near it.

And here you guys thought the car was hard to maintain! :toothy4:
