Little Goat Rose is going to bloom! I call him Little Goat Rose because each year, the miniature rose bush loses most of his leaves, leaving his branches looking like the goats got to him! I almost got rid of him the first time he got all scraggly looking, but I gave him a few days, and tiny specks of fresh growth began to appear! Now, without fail, each year, he sheds his leaves and then the leaves come back and he issues a few blooms.
