Fantastic. They are small roses, aren´t they? What is the precise/full name of this rose?

2 Sep, 2013

 

Hi Katrina, I would say the flowers are 10-12cm. Her name is Lady Emma Hamilton, a David Austin rose. The new growth is a beautiful colour, sort of bronze maroon and she has a fantastic perfume:-)

Oh yes, red and orange roses are usually very fragrant. I would´t say the flowers are so large. They look smaller on the photo, but it might be perspective. Have to google details on this rose.

I reckon this is the unnamed two that I have Ba, yes globes and the later blooms were this colour, what a scent...like strong apricots! It is a real beauty!

Katrina, the flowers of this second big flush are smaller, more like 8-10 cm:-)

Hi Janey, do some your flowers have a pinkish flush too as they age, and bronzey new growth? I've decided to increase the number of roses I have, I think the count is about 18 at the moment, but they're so lovely and flower for such a long time .....:-))

Yes they do Ba......if you cut them for indoors, the globe disintegrates after a couple of days, petals are peach with yellow and so scented....my smallest granddaughter loves them!

It does sound like Lady Emma then, don't know about disintegrating globes though, I've never cut them for the house. My last blog but one is pics af Lady Emma in all her forms and shows the bush shape too. If you have a look it may totally identify yours:-))

Hi Jane and Gralew, she's still flowering, possibly my favourite rose, and her lovely perfume is the icing on the cake:-))
