I've been waiting for this for my entire adult life, and I'm very 
excited.  Just under three weeks...

It's a combination of surrounding growth and two extremely brutal 
winters in a row.  Back when I planned all this, it was safe to bet on 
the high side of average winter temperatures, and that row of shrubs 
providing my privacy was only about 5' tall.  Now the shrubs are 10' 
tall, and it's hard to maintain a balance between privacy and light 
penetration.  The rose barely gets enough light, and when the brutal low 
temperatures hit, it didn't fare well.
