    Today i was walking round my local super Store and I came across this beautiful Standard Rose and I was laying on the ground in a empty Pot with all its roots bare it was marked up at £19 .98p I asked if i could have it any cheaper and they said We have been waiting for a week wondering what to do with it,my reply was you could have stood it up and put some soil in the Pot anyway i purchased it for £5 and it is now in my garden.I think I will start a Rose Rescue Centre :)

    Its called Orange Sensation

    Our knight in shining armour already.

    For some reason the wife doesn't like standards, so we don't have any, pity, I like them, you can grow something else underneath.
