Rosa banksiae 'Lutea'

And beautiful it is too.......

Now that it's started flowering, I hope it'll go from strength to strength. The lady across the lane has an enormous (old) one - it makes mine look puny!

Wonderful sight!

:-))

I thought of you when I saw this featured in the latest 'Gardens Illustrated' magazine. It's really beautiful. I love the gentleness of the colour.

I just love it, and I'm thrilled that it had so many flowers on it this year! :-)

Yes, I don't blame you! :))

AND now that the flowers are fully open, they do have a scent! :-)))

Ah! Wonderful...even better!

Bamboo asked if it did, and at the time, I said no. I'll have to tell her. :-)

I think I asked as well. Scent is a major factor when I'm choosing a rose!

I don't need to tell you, then! lol.

No you don't ..ramblers are too big for my wee plot anyway! My roses are coming on great this year, loads of buds on the established ones!

I have, too - I wish at least one or two would hurry up and open, though!

:) I'd bet money on some being in flower for your open day!

Fingers crossed, then!

I peeked at that weather forecast again - they've changed their minds already! I'd better not look again, in case they change them back again. ;-/

lol! you just can't help yourself!! ;)

I shall try hard not to look again, Karen...it is hard though. ;-&
