Caught the Old Rose bug in the 90's and they have taken centre stage in my gardens ever since. I overfill my borders to the point of ridiculousness!

@trina - highly scented, strong bushy growth, repeat flowering, perfectly formed blooms, unique colouration. Would be in my top 5 old garden roses, any day of the week! :)

5,6 & 10 are once flowering so should only be lightly pruned, straight after flowering :)

Ooh! Madame Legras de Saint German. The most perfect white flowers. Wonderful at the back of the border or as a short climber. @trina x
