This has the most glorious scent - subtle yet rich and honeyed. The blooms are stunning but don't last so long - best left on the plant than cut.

Ive been told this rose would be good for an arch. Lovely photo, I love all the English roses

Thankyou - glad you like the photo - it is indeed splendid for an archway (which is exactly where we have it - one side this rose, the other side is planted with Constance Spry - she's a bit longer established so has claimed more of the arch, but we're hoping this year there may be more of an even contest for the mid-point!) I've posted some views of the arch from each side.
