I do love the size of the bunches of flowers that open on this rose. The bees seem to like it too. #rose #polinatorfriendlyplant

A lovely bunch of flowers. I have a horrid feeling lastnights rain may have destroyed many of the roses that have come out or ace coming out.

Dispite the now rubbish weather and taking a battering it's still looking lovely. Just wish it was better weather so I could enjoy it even more. #rose
