    Stingo - what a beautiful colour!!!!! I adore the full roses like that. Does it have a strong smell? My DA roses have been fantastic this year.

    Thanks for your comments.

    It does have a lovely smell Honey Bee, I am going to train it to grow over an archway (hopefully!)

    What DA roses do you have HB?

    It's not a rose I know, looks lovely. Have you got the climber or the shrub?
    Lovely photo again!

    Thanks everyone,

    according to the label it can be grown as a climber or a shrub!

    it does look like Waco's avatar doesn't it?

    LOL Wildflower..good idea.
