'Iceberg' bud

That's beautiful Spritz :) Mine are still in tight bud up here in Cheshire..

We are a lot further south here, so it must make a difference.

Yes...looking at your pics I would say you are a good 2-3 weeks ahead.

P.S. By the way, very best of luck for your NGS open day....your garden looks fantastic....I hope you raise loads of money for the NGS xxx

Thank you...that's a lovely message! :-) Just need the weather now...not like today's!

Fingers crossed that the sun will shine, and the visitors will turn up in their hundreds! But even if it rains, the true gardeners will still turn out to see your lovely garden :)

lovely rose

That is so delicate and pretty :o)

I love 'Iceberg'. It's such a pure white when it opens.

The rain on it's petals just makes it more beautiful. If it's ok I'm going to add this photo to my screen show on the computer - helps to cheer up a boring day.

Of course you can! I'd be delighted, Evy. x
