I love the colour of this rose, was nearly tempted today to buy it, but thought better not or I shall have to dig out some more grass. lol :O)

It's lovely, but it's not a strong one Mum, and it gets infested with anything that passes!

ok thanks for that Karen I shall not buy it then, it was the colour I liked, beautiful.

Yes, it's gorgeous. There will be one very like it in DA's range, I bet...and healthier. The nearest I have is Darcey Bussell I think, but it doesn't have the silver underside to its petals, and that's what makes this one so special.

This rose is spectacular. How much does it cost in the UK?

oh goodness, I can't remember exactly...about £15 from Sarah Raven online Katarina, I think.

That´s reasonable price/quality ratio ;-)

Is that a 'Big' aphid? Yuk I hate big green bugs and found a baby Katydid last night....That's me done in the undergrowth for a while!

They are bait creepy...they usually assault me from above by hiding in the trees!
