A very old red rose from our garden.

That's wonderful Chris, my parents were given a gorgeous peachy coloured Rose by the Royal British Legion for all their voluntary work. It flowered for years and years in their front garden and was admired by passers by. The last time I walked past the house, the whole flower border has gone and been paved over ... heartbreaking to see.

Wow! That's fantastic, Chris. It must love where it's been all these years, it looks wonderful and healthy.

Lovely that you have had this rose for that long. A lovely reminder. You have some really lovely roses.
