This is where we removed a 5' tall shrub rose that was casting too much shade and DH said "It's gotta go". Right now it is suffering root shock but he promised that we would get a new one in the Spring if this one bit the dust. It is an Austin "Heirloom" (a pink one) that we planted 10 years ago when we moved in and began working on the garden -- I didn't have the iris bug as bad then...

All the irises around are Dykes TBs and top in their class medians.
