    They are gorgeous aren't they. My Mum loved them too and always grew loads, they evoke happy memories of childhood days playing in our fragrance filled garden .:spinning:

          Hi Sheal, it starts in late May and finishes in early August . Not bad for a shrub really, nearly three months.

                            Ps...there's even ground elder in flower in the bunch. A dainty little spray...shame its parents are such thugs...

                              Thanks @Jenny namaste. Yes I love the roses and might take some cuttings. The dry stone wall? Hmm....They're everywhere here. I'm slowly re-building one at the end of my drive and I have a derelict one as a garden boundary. I won't be re-building that, it's 200ft long. :doh:
