A friend gave us this as a present. You can tell it's been raining.

Lovely rich colour ,Linda,and a lovely gift..We had some welcome rain overnight too . a.bit damp, cloudy and very windy today....

Hi Bloomer, yes it's certainly windy today, but we've hoed the ground now it's wet.... Not much rain though.
This rose has a beautiful scent. Prince William comes to mind for it's name but not certain.

I wish it would rain down here as the ground is really dry ...

Its standing up to the rain well!

The rain didn't go very far down Ck and Shirley. We'll have to be watering the pots and gardens if the temperature gets as high as they say it will this next week.

What a smashing rose....

Thanks DD it is and it's not too big a bush either.

That does help in a smaller garden.....
