          Rose 'Chandos Beauty' - taken at Chelsea last week, it looked so perfect.

            If that's the true colour GA, it is fantastic isn't it. Like porcelain and so delicate. A young bride's rose....

                    Thank you Woo. Not normally fond of an HT rose but I can readily make an exception with 'Chandos Beauty'

                            My 'Ebb Tide' also has a flower. I took a picture of that too and then deleted it. Why? I really don't like the rose at all and it's on the brink of being ousted!

                              Lovely Sheal - the blue is quite a calming shade and the orange is beautiful.

                                Thanks Annie. :) Rose specialists are still to produce a true blue rose but for now I'm happy with the one I have.
