              That's a lovely red rose Woo! :)


              These first two pictures are 'Lincolnshire Yellow Belly', how different the flowers look when fully open. This rose also looks a lot different to how it bloomed last year.

                    Thanks Loli and Woo. :)

                    Woo, I didn't realise 'Rob Roy' went that far back, I chose it because I was looking for a red rose and I read a lot of Scottish history so this had to be the one! :) It has a very deep sweet perfume of the past if that makes sense. If only we could have 'smelly' GC, wouldn't that be wonderful?

                    As a Rosarian can you remember many rose perfumes that you have worked with down the years, or once passed the sniffer are they forgotten?

                        Does it have a perfume to tie in with it's name Loli?
