    Hi Folks

    I have a lovely standard rose about 20 years old hybrid tea called Paul McCartney which flowers prolifically and fragrantly beside the front door of my house.

    I would like to plant another standard rose in the back garden red, pink or white with a strong scent to fit in well with a mainly pink blue purple and white sunny border. I am struggling to decide which to choose and from which supplier.

    Any suggestions and advice would be gratefully appreciated particularly about the best time to purchase and plant out.

    many thanks

    Richard

    Richard.
