Outside our kitchen folding door I planted a herb bed, with a climbing rose at the back growing up the wall and onto an iron trellis.
There's also a Clematis entwined through the rose - a Clematis with prolific small white flowers called 'Jingle Bells', due to its habit of flowering through the festive season.

The rose does it's best and regularly has flowers late November, but at a time of year when not much else is flowering Jingle Bells just keeps going.

The trailing flowers are obviously not as delicate as they look and I usually try to capture a photo or two against a deep blue winter sky.
