Not My Roses Now!

I had a lovely climbing rose bush close to the back door, which got rather smothered in another bush, brambles & Honeysuckle. I got my gardener to cut back the undergrowth & the brambles & this year the rose is flowering again, but unfortunately it's gone over the fence & has decided to bloom on next doors shed roof so all I get is the backs of the flowers. That's gratitude after all the care it had from my gardener. I never was green fingered.

It's trying to get to some light, you might be better moving it if possible.

It never tried to get the light there before, there is plenty of light my side of the fence. It just being perverse. If I could reach the branches the blooms are on I'd tie them this side. Next door haven't noticed as it's blooming on their blooming shed!
