Thankyou :-)
Can't think how long I've had this Dawn, mmm must be 5 or 6 years I'd say and its well over 6ft (taller than the greenhouse)by around 5ft wide,took a couple of years to really get going but no stopping it now :-)

Beautiful. Is it flowering just once in the season? How high is it? It looks like those sorts of roses which are called Celtic.

Yes Katarina it just flowers the once, wonderful display though, quite hard to catch well on a picture, it does have a lovely scent too more noticeable on warm days, not many of those at the moment :-), its over 6ft tall, it really needs a good hair cut :-))

So it is old Celtic rose. Wow. It is hard to get them here. They are available mostly in France now.
