Rose ‘Silky Smooth’ A virtually thornless rose.


Rose ‘Silky Smooth’ A virtually thornless rose.

Of all the plants I grow, Roses are one of my favourites. I just get so much from their colour and scent. And there are so many to choose from. I bought this one for the front garden and quickly moved it to the back! The colour was wrong for the front. But it is a very lovely and extremely healthy rose. Lightly scented and coping well with its North-East facing position. I’ve added two more roses to the back garden plan (Eustacia Vye and Gabriel Oak…well, this is Thomas Hardy’s County!) and am eagerly awaiting their delivery!
