DSC01767 Shrub Rose

Now that is quite something, J! There are several mauve/purple roses on the market, here...any idea what this one's called?

Love the colour Julia - sort of magenta?

Don't appologise, J...it's only since I've been on GoY that I've even cared!!! :)

Well I've got quite a few, let's think! - two in the front garden and five in the back, plus two patio roses. All the ones in the garden (and there are some beauties) were already in the garden when we bought the house. One of the patio roses (Baby Masquerade) we brought from the old house, and the other patio rose (nameless) hubby bought me a couple of months ago. I'm not particularly a rose fan as I think they take a lot of looking after (I'm all for low-maintenance plants!) but the ones I've got, I'm keeping!!!

That's a gorgeous rose Meadowland - is it scented?
