    That's one I was thinking about. How big is his plant? It says 4 by 4ft on the DA website.

    Hi Isandri. I received a present 2 years ago of a Rose Named 'Simply The Best'. It Is An Orange Rose With a very strong Perfume.I would recommend this Quality Rose. I have had my Rose in a large Terracotta pot since I planted it 2 years ago and it is looking Great.:blue thumb:.
