    Hello all, Im new here, my name is Diana :)
    As you can see from my nickname I love roses, although Ive never had any success with 'Blue Moon'
    My favourite in my garden at the moment is Osiria ( see below )

    [​IMG]

    Sadly I lost my husband 10 months ago, and I am thinking of buying a rose to plant in the garden which I shall call 'Frank's Rose. Can anyone recommend one ? Im not really into Floribunda types preferring a compact bush rose with excellent fragrance, disease resistance and strikingly 'different/beautiful' blooms.

    Thank you

    P.S. WOO, I see you have bought Double Delight, although I do not have this rose an Aunt of mine had one in her garden and it was gorgeous, with the 'double' delight of 1. It's two tone colours and 2. Its gorgeous fragrance :)

    Thank you so much. As to colour I think I am open to suggestions with the exception perhaps of vivid orange or white. I would like a strongly scented one if possible :) Any in the red/pink, deep pink, or bi colour would be nice
