Rosa Absolutely Fabulous

Lives up to it's name,any scent

It certainly does !

That's gorgeous.

Yes Brian, it has an unusual liquorice scent.

Nice one, what a great selection of roses, you're garden must look so pretty.....

The roses are all around the veggie patch, some I've added this year.

I thought it interesting that it was bred by Tom Carruth (United States, 2004) The parents of this rose are (Voodoo x R. soulieana) x (Summerwine) x Topnotch

It's known by different names in different countries.

eg: 'Absolutely Fabulous' (UK)
'Anisade' ® (Germany)
'Jiřina Bohdalová'
'SASOL Rose' (South Africa)
'Soul Mate' (Australia)

We have Summer wine.....a super rose....

All 3 of those 'parents' are lovely, Topnotch is the yellow variety, Voodoo has the colours of a sunset.
