On my way down to the mailbox, I noticed a wild rose climbing the trees across from the Nobles'.  It is huge, and very fragrant.  I smell cloves and roses.  :))

 

Roses and blackberries are related, and look very much alike, except the roses are more compact, and the leaves are smaller.  The blackberries are blooming now too, but they are more sprawling in their growth habit.

 

Speaking of blackberries, it is now safe to plant whatever you want to grow in your garden.  Blackberries blooming signals the last frost date.

 

So, go ahead and DO IT!!!!!

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
