Hello Harry.

I'm sure someone will be along shortly to help you out. Only thing is, what's the question?

 

Rose ID

Harry, I can help

But first, what you need to do is this:

~ take a cutting, pencil thin in girth and about 12" long
~ send it to me
~ apply a little patience, say, about 12 - 24 months?
~ bookmark this thread and I'll get back to you by then

 

Tell me how to do it lol

Do you think Harry will be looking for a second opinion? And a Third maybe?

 

Make sure the bottom is immediately below a growth point, bud. Insert it into a pot of compost, about half way down the length, and forget it till next year apart from watering when necessary .

Harry, do you mean that you want to know how to look after the plant or which sort it is?

 

this rose look very familiar to me, it is very much like one of the types that my mother had in our garden in Italy ( she had many), magnificent scent but I don't know the name of it.

 

Amended your post, Pam, so Harry gets the very best ... choices

 

Sorry i should've explained it better i wanted to know the name of the rose. Thanks for replying to the thread, lovely to see so many helpful people

They're all busy helping themselves ... to your Rose Harry!

Wise Old Owls is the most knowledgeable on Roses around here, and hopefully his identification is spot on.

 

Caprice de Meilland?

 

The colour reminds me very much of Wendy Cussons!!
