Rose Banksia

really cute, a lovely rose

Beautiful roses Tet.

thats very nice ~ a bit different too

Thanks girls..this I saw at Biddulph Grange and took a pic..liked it so much I have bought it to go on my gazebo...bit of a thug but not very thorny..so should be good!

is it scented? cant imagine what type of aftershave a thug may use?

Gazebo dear, not gigolo! lol!

im now picturing a gazebo putting on aftershave ~ do i have the wrong idea?

Noooo Lol! It was the way I wrote it...but actually you are not far wrong! I will be putting some scented roses on my gazebo, altho this particular one, Banksia is not scented..I dont think anyway.

have you got gigolos in your garden too?
or maybe Banksy ~ the graffiti artist?

I have to pass on the gigolos Sticki..shh dont tell anyone but I have to admit, just to you mind, Im getting past it!

i wouldnt tell a soul tetra!

I WILL DEFINITELY KEEP THAT QUIET!!

Oh, I think I will visit Tet and her Gazebo!!!

Oh what a trip down memory lane this is! I fell in love with this beautiful rose YEARS ago at a garden show but could never find it on sale anywhere so never did get one. I was also deterred by the fact that this area is just not good for roses but seeing as you call it a thug then just maybe it might do well here.....:o))

Well its thriving at Biddulph in Staffordshire, go to Places to Visit Lily, its way up to second floor of the mansion house, or try tags for Biddulph.
