DIY drones, so to speak. The drone shots were nice but after a while I was ready for something else. I mean if the subject of the movie was shots from drones, fine. But the ostensible subject was rose pruning, right? I would have shown several on the ground "before" and "after" shots of different types of roses, to show the work being done, brief interviews with fun people about pruning--why they were there, etc, perhaps interspersed shots of a growing, increasingly gigantic pile of clippings to show the passage of time, shots of pruning bouquets, maybe--were there pruning bouquets? Perhaps a chorus of "ow!" "eeeiih!" and "%$&$#^", which is the sound of getting scratched and poked by prickles--the normal soundtrack of pruning time, people comparing their scratches and stabs and cuts, Someone handing out band-aids, someone sharpening pruners, etc, etc. Just more variety. Cool though, nice and clear.

these might not answer your questions, but this is a forum The parsly one may help with the roses smell though. I read that parsly around base of a rose Increases Fragrance(also will repel rose beatle whatever that is. helps Chive (Allium schoenoprassum) black spot on roses, fruit tree insect GARLIC: Plant near roses to repel aphids. Accumulates sulfur: a naturally occurring fungicide which will help in the garden with disease prevention.

Thank you everyone. Yes, climbers do take their time, and patience from me, and they are worth it, I love them.
