I was a little at first but its such a beautiful rose I couldnt help but fall for it;0)

Cinders just googled it and it does look very similar but I have noticed the the white centre turns deep pink as it finishes, does this happen on Double Delight?

Not sure PP. Its a long time since I had DD, but I googled it too and couldnt make up my mind either, it looked a little more red than yours I thought. It does look a little like Handel as well.

It is incredible whatever it's name. It looks like a Camellia doesn't it, with that outer edge of contrasting colour. Nice one Carole!

Thanks Violet and Karen, its amazing how the colour seems to spread towards the center as it matures they end up all the same deep red ;0)
