I don't know it's name Sue, but what a great bargain! lovely colour.

I know it's a shame, have you seen my blog on Aphids Pixi...I make a mix of Garlic and water...Aphids do not like Garlic...and it's cheaper than Rose clear...
Karen if you click on the arrow, on the google box it will drop down and give you the list of where you've been, so you should be able to locate it again...Would be good if you could...we might able to find the name for yours as well...
Nice little compact rose, glad you all liked it...:)))

Garlic aye? Ahaha I thought they were evil beasties! Will try it! thanks :)
24 Jul, 2011
You're welcome....

Does it have to be fresh garlic? Would garnules do? Was just thinking too..wouldn't that take away the beautiful smell of the rose?
24 Jul, 2011
No not at all Pixi...Mine smell just as sweet...I know one of the other GOYers used granules, but I think fresh is best its stronger...
24 Jul, 2011

28 Jul, 2011
Put a pic on.. :)))
28 Jul, 2011
Why do you want to smell it lol...:))) I went on the french site you gave me, put all the details in for the Rose etc, pressed search and nothing happend...Am I missing something lol...I got the site on my desk top so I can get back to it easily...but couldn't get anywhere...:(((
28 Jul, 2011
The first time I found it, I chose it off the list which came up when I googled 'rosiers en couleur rose'. All their pink roses came up...perhaps you could try googling 'rosiers en couleur orange/jaune'...then click filroses.com. I tried the search and nothing happened for me either!
...unless it was a different site...no I don't think so...their catalogue's enormous, much bigger than Meilland... :/ lol!
28 Jul, 2011
lol!
28 Jul, 2011
ok will try it that way...thanks love...:))
28 Jul, 2011
Hope it works :s
