The white mock orange I planted beneath the balcony 15 years ago is a vigorous plant; although there is only one, it has grown to a considerable size. It is also the first rose to bloom in the garden every April. It is quite a job to prune back the vigorous shoots that grow repeatedly from summer through to autumn, but fortunately the branches have no thorns, which makes it much easier. It has only just started flowering and there are plenty of buds, so I look forward to enjoying it for a while yet.
バルコニーの下に15年前に植えた白のモッコウバラは樹勢が強くて一本で大きく育っています。そして毎年4月に庭で最初に咲くバラです。夏から秋に何度も強く伸びる枝を切り戻すのが大変ですが、幸い枝に棘がないので助かっています。まだ咲き始めでたくさんのつぼみがあって、しばらく楽しめそうです。
