Keeps on going on

The rose bush in our back yard has been there as long as we’ve owned our house, almost 35 years, and it still produces flowers most every year. A month ago the canes were growing out of control and there wasn’t a single bud, but this week there were at least 10 roses.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

The old roses are very resilient. Our neighbors have 40 year old climbers. I know there is one over 100 in Arizona and then there is the 1,000 year rose https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand-year_Rose

Excellent rose portrait a well-cared for rose bush or it would not produce for 35 years.
The Betts family are good gardeners.
Nice sharp apple image.

A beautiful rose to look forward to every year. I hope your heat wave doesn’t end the bloom.
