Thankyou, this is a real favourite of mine :-)
It is a David Austin rose Wildrose although I'm embarassed to say I don't know which member of the family its named after :-))

Pat Austin is David's wife....:>)

Ooops , embarassing or what :-)))), you'd think I'd know that wouldn't you having so many of his roses :-)))
Think he picked his best rose to name after his wife :-))

This is one of his best.....

Many thanks for the info - I guessed she must have something to do with him!!

Oh no, now Kathy/DD you've said its his best rose I need one, lol.

You say its a wildrose Kathy, not sure what you mean - what growth habit does it have - is it like a shrub rose?

Its a shrub rose Dawn, I was replying to Wildroses question :-))

Oh derrrr, sorry, tut. Thanks, shrub rose sounds good. Is it a favourite of yours Kathy.
