              It's a real treat to wander your garden @ARMANDII. :dbgrtmb: Can I ask the name of the rose in the last picture of post #48 please?

                I'll still sit in the Arbour next year in the Spring, with a mug of tea, thinking "what's that, what's that?" as I look at the numerous shoots pushing out of the ground.:coffee::dunno::heehee:

                  It's called "Crazy for You", Sheal, and was one of my Wife's real favourites. It was bought at the RHS Show at Tatton Park although I have bought others from the local Commercial Growers in Cheshire for people who wanted it when they saw it in the garden.:snorky:



                  Crazy for You - Floribunda Bush Rose


                  Crazy For You is highly attractive with single striped flowers of random scarlet & cream. Repeat flowers on healthy growth. A Floribunda garden rose with a strong fragrance. Suitable for a large container or middle border. A very striking and unusual rose!
                  [​IMG]
                  Fragrance: Strong

                  Bush Rose Height: 100-20cm
