                  Just as a matter of interest I found I had lost track of exactly what roses I had so here's what I think I've got.

                  Two white climbing roses......names unknown.
                  Madame Alfred Carriere [climbing white]
                  Masquerade [climbing red/yellow/pink]
                  Alberic Barbier [climbing white]
                  Bright Future [climbing orange]
                  Alchemist [climbing yellow/apricot]
                  Compassion [climbing pink]
                  White Cloud [climbing white]
                  White Skyliner [climbing white]
                  Vielehenblau [climbing purple/violet]
                  Oranges and Lemons [shrub orange and yellow]
                  Uncle Walter [shrub deep red]
                  Generous Gardener [shrub white]
                  Kings Ransom [shrub yellow]
                  Rosemoore [shrub blush white]
                  Regensburg [dwarf shrub pink/white]
                  Trumpeter [shrub red]
                  Crazy for you [shrub red and white]

                  There's probably another one or two down at the bottom of the garden:doh::dunno: It amazes me how over the years one collects roses and forgets how many you have.....you've just got to love 'em though and what a return of pleasure you get for your money!!:hapydancsmil:

                    That's certainly a list you've got there @ARMANDII! I'm beginning to wonder whether you're quietly removing fence panels to house all your plants in acquired ground. :heehee:

                      Hi @Apple Blossom, you are right well rotted horse manure is what you should use, I was sold some pig manure from the owner of our local farm shop mainly for my veggie patch but he said to try it on my roses, which is what he does & the result was very good as you can see :), However this year does seem to be a really good year for roses....it could just be coincidence of course!? :scratch:

                        To be honest, Sheal, I've worried about the climbing roses in the past due to the fact that it is hard to stop them going over the 8' high fence panels into both of the next door neighbours gardens. But both of them insist I have to leave them as they get a lovely show of roses in their gardens for free!!:heehee:
