My Climbing Roses

I've felt some guilt some time now for not growing roses. I mean, I live in Tyler, the rose capitol of Texas. I've read that they're so much work, though, and very often get multiple diseases. But last year, I gave in & decided to give it a try. When I bought these roses they were about 3 ft. tall. Now they scale 8-10 feet...In just a year! I'm so proud---thought I better capture some photos before they get some fungus! Climbing Pinkie- I have 2 of these...climbing up the columns on the back porch.
Climbing pinkie is almost thorn-free.
This is Climbing Iceberg. Doing lovely on the fence.
