Rose 'Canary Bird'

Those two colours are stunning together Sim...:>)

Thanks Motinot :-)

Oh Kathy, after seeing yours last year, I bought one in the Autumn - wonder if mine will flower this year. :). Yours is gorgeous.

I remember you saying you'd bought one Dawn,hope it flowers for you:-), this is a bit out of control,lol,trying to take over the world, but yes soooo pretty.

How big then Kathy - in how long. Mines about a foot tall. Lol

A beautiful dainty rose;0)

Simply beautiful....

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.

Hope I've given mine enough room, lol. Sounds lovely, cant wait for it to get going.

Looks the same as mine Simbad - it really is spectacular!

Thought it looked the same Meanie, not that many roses that flower this early :-))

And it certainly flowers well too!
