        Amazing rose Anthony. Looks like a DA - what do you think @Lolimac , @wiseowl ?
        My guess is "A Shropshire Lad",
        Jenny

          Hi Jenny,

          Thanks for that I've just checked it out and that looks spot on :)

          There'll be more as they open, as about 10 years ago we bought about 8 or 9 all un-named from poundland.
          They are all stunning and probably worth a lot more than a pound from garden centres.

                  What a beautiful selection of roses you've posted. I'm so lucky to live only 5 mins away from David Austin. Love walking round their grounds. When my lot finally kick into action, I'll post some pictures. In the meantime, I'll gaze at the pictures you're all posting. x

                      Good morning @Jenny namaste my first reaction was it could be,but I am now thinking of all the Rose nurseries I am not sure how a "David Austin" Rose from 1997 made its way to poundland but I could be wrong;)

                            Lovely roses Banana Man. :dbgrtmb: I was talking about copyrighting in the photography forum recently because of a couple of my pictures turning up elsewhere. Perhaps you should have words with this site about removing your pic or ask for a fee. :)
