      Ta da! It has arrived. You know what I love about good plant mail order companies, the packaging! :D

      And here is the ugly scene I am hoping it will help to cover. I have to grow it in a large container but this is a large-ish 50 x 50 cm one full of good loam based compost and rotted manure. If it really suffers, I can plant it out in another corner.

          Thank you and will do - I'm entering uncharted territory here with my first rose :D That area of the garden can be quite windy but the rose is protected a bit by a water butt to the left of it and the large metal drain pipe that you can see. I think it should be OK re: water. The compost wasn't waterlogged at all when I dug down into so drainage seems to be alright so far and I will keep a close eye on it.
