See what you think of the scent. The catalogue says it is 'strong' but I find it quite faint! Nice though....very 'tea' I think! Lovely rose though. The ones I had in the front are all growing in their new home at the back and all except one have buds on.....

yes I agree, very light scent, not strong it is what I was saying yesterday, it is a bit disappointing that there is little perfume, but the rose itself is very very pretty, so will console myself with that.

yes, and do you remember, the first year I grew these, four years ago now, I was picking them when the Xmas tree was up!

Oh yes I remember that, didn't realise it was this one. hope it does that for me and keeps flowering for as long as that. It is a strong one, lovely shiny leaves also.
