          That is a lovely rose Simbad - when all the buds are in flower it will look stunning.

                    Oh there are some lovely roses here. I have a few but not as many as I would like but it is a rented garden after all and everything that is in it is what I have put in over the 17 years I have rented here. I have paul scarlet up the back fence and another one to the right of an arch going through to the back part of the garden with Masquerade the other side of the arch and Golden Showers the other side of that. Then in the front which is just a border I have alternate 3 of each of a red which is I think something like Arabian nights, not sure and a lovely pink but unfortunately I am not sure of these half dozen just that they are a picture now with a rambler in the middle again not sure what name as they were put in when I first moved in here when the old blackthorn hedge died of old age and people trampling through it until I put trellis up behind the roses and put bulbs along the border of tete a tete and wallflowers each year to make a nice full border. I have also some wild violets in there as well. I am deviating from your Rose thread. I must get some pictures of the front border so some of you can give me some idea of what you think this half dozen roses are and also the one rambler in the middle. Thanks guys.

                          'Winchester Cathedral' is doing the strange thing it sometimes does, usually it opens 1 flower at a time on each cluster but this year its going over the top again :heehee:
