    Blimey, what a brilliant thread! This one seems to have passed me by.

    I don't have that many Roses now, as my garden has been re-modelled, just a small lawn where the flower bed used to be:sad: All I have now are my climbers. I'll post a few pics when the time comes, which hopefully won't be long now:)

    Cheers...Freddy.

        Rose "Jenny"
        Early this year, Jenny, a very dear friend passed away too young after a very short illness. One of her wishes was that instead of floral tributes, friends and family should plant nice flowers in their gardens. I managed to find rose "Jenny" and it now sits beneath our kitchen window as a constant reminder of our lovely friend and former colleague.

          This is one of the Roses in the front border which I would like named if you recognize it.

              Thanks WOO, I think I put them in about 10 or 11 years ago. I can't be more accurate than that. I suppose that will give you some idea what years to look at for their origin. I do not think they had names on them when I bought them as I just bought the first two in packs of three of each and the last one the rambler/climber went in at the same time up the middle pillar of the overhang of the flats. I suppose I should have used my facility for improving the photos but I am not a critical photographer so they looked ok to me. I didn't take them Steve took them with his big camera.

              Thanks "M" for your comments.

              Any idea as to what they could be?
