    So I was let loose in the half dead section again In my local GC and saw a single potted rose labelled Princess of Wales. A quick Google search let me to a beautiful white rose. I grabbed it, paid and came home with big smile. 2 weeks later a big red bud appeared :wallbanging: anyway the most beautiful flower below and gorgeous scent has me over the moon. Still don't know what it is but I'm very happy.

      I often find plants are wrongly labelled, I think people pull them out to read them and put them back in a different pot, although many are stapled on these days but are still wrong.
      It's a very pretty rose though :smile:

        @Michael Hewett I think you are right.
        It's just not meant to be as I bought 3 rose polo last year, bare root in autumn. When they flowered they were all pink :noidea: the GC said they must of got mixed up and they didn't know what they were.
