With #StormDarragh battering the country, particularly in the west, south-west, ‘Windflower’ #rose seems an appropriate choice. Repeat flowers. Old Rose scent. Good disease resistant.

Grey and wintry skies this morning, so we’re scurrying back to summer for #RoseWednesday and our #roseadvent offering.
‘It’s A Wonderful Life’ (peach) and ‘The Poet’s Wife’, plus little pink pelargonium.
Have a good day everyone, take care. #roses 🌱

Warming up a chilly morning on the second day of our #roseadvent are ‘Morning Mist’ and ‘Bright and Breezy’.
Have a good week everyone, take care, stay safe. #roses 🌱

A bit behind on our #roseadvent so catching up with four pink lovelies: Charisma, Royal Perfuma, You’re My Everything, Eustacia Vye.
It’s grey but mild here, I really must get on with bulb planting…
Whatever you’re doing, have a good day, take care. #roses 🌱
