    Hi,

    Looking for some advice on a suitable specimen Rose for our North East facing fence which does catch the sun for the first half of the day and is just in light shade from the fence for the rest of the day, no big trees etc.

    We are looking for something like Queen Elizabeth Floribunda but thats said to grow up to 5 - 6ft, whereas we need something more 3 - 4 ft, probably a Pinkish or Yellowish, but not White.

    It could be a HT, just something that we can still buy as a decent sized pot grown plant to get going this year, if possible ?

    Thanks

    Rose 'Lucky!' is a floribunda I had in my last garden and meets the height you would like Ricky. It flowers well, is perfumed and is very good regarding disease resistance. The flowers are lilac pink.
