    That`s the important thing with roses, WOO, start spraying early and finish late. As you say, it saves a lot of trouble further into the season.

    It is from a cutting given to me a few years ago and I am almost sure the name quoted was 'Baron Edmund de Rothschild'. The perfume is as stunning as the colour. [​IMG]
