      Wonderful Woo, 'Double Delight' is quite an old one, isn't it? I've never heard of Brush Strokes before but it reminds me a bit of the one named after a famous local rose grower, Harry Wheatcroft. Enjoy your lovely roses, nice choices! :thumbsup:

        Good morning @Nikolaos my friend Double Delight is a Hybrid Tea strong spice fragrance bred by Ellis and Swan about 1976:smile:

        Brush Strokes is a Floribunda/Cluster Flowered Yellow and red stripes bred by M Guest about 1999:smile:

          @wiseowl - Woo I had 'Brushstrokes' growing in my previous garden (images below). You've made a good choice with it's lovely colour combination. :)

            Good afternoon @Sheal my dear friend I know you introduced it to me thank you,I am now looking for two/three more Roses to compliment each other:smile: as you know I favour Hybrid Teas probably because I grew up with them and amongst them when they were taller than me;):smile:

              I don't think I've ever owned a hybrid tea rose, they have all been floribunda's with the exception of a couple of standards. What colours are you thinking of Woo for your two/three?
