Stachys and Rose

It’s a really lovely one, no matter the name, Janey.

It is beautiful.

Gorgeous rose Janey … lovely to have scent too 🙂. Looks a bit like Karen’s Princess Alexandra of Kent? x

Thanks Kate and Shirley the roses are especially lovely this year.

I'll check Karen's and have a look Sheila, thanks for that. I've not been able to access the site again and hence just this one photo..x

Janey, I was so pleased yesterday afternoon to find the site running well. Sadly, this morning it is so slow I shall walk away and return later ... :o((

Lovely roses, Janey! :) It doesn't get any quicker does it? I don't post nearly as often as I used to owning to how slow it is! :( Just to post a comment, let alone add pictures to a blog, takes ages. On other forums you post a comment & you don't even have time to blink once - it's already posted - even from a mobile phone!

Sheila, it is similar to Karen's lovely rose, but not as robust. I'm sure I knew it's name, it'll come to me when I'm not thinking!

It's so disappointing Shirley to think to have half an hour to catch up and add a couple of pics, but no, no access again till today.

Thank you Balc, no it doesn't and it's such a shame as we all want to use it.
It really is a shame it's not being monitored and kept up to date.

Pretty soon there won't be any members left to post blogs & make comments as lots of us are migrating to other gardening forums where we don't have the troubles that we have on GoY!

I'd love to make up & post blogs like I used to (I must have done 100s in all the years I've been on GoY). But when you have dozens of themes to talk about & your photos upload in a few seconds, (you can post as many as you like & there is no size limit as well as multiple photos all at the same time!), you are bound to want the same for GoY but won't get it. I wish we could do that on here. This is a prehistoric site now compared to others that are more modern!

There are GoY members on other sites as well though we don't tend to mention GoY very often.
