Rosa 'Ausbord' syn. Rosa 'Gertrude Jekyll'

Looking lovely today and smelling divine at gardeners world live. It was a tough choice as so many beautiful plants there but this is my #bestinshow.

How odd just saw this very rose and nearby brought it. It does smell amazing but it was £17!

*nearly thanks auto-correct

Excellent choice ❤️🌹

Nearly bought that yesterday at the show, fantastic fragrance, but I'm struggling with blackspot at the moment so thought I would clear that up first 😆

@katgreen do you have any handy tips on how to do that?

@stephaniewatkins I keep picking of the leaves and destroying them, I'm also giving them all a good mulch and feed and I have recently bought some sulphur powder which you can puff directly onto the leaves or dig into the soil and now it's wait and see, the last resort will be to spray and if all else fails I was thinking I might transfer them all into pots onto a gravel bed 😊

@katgreen thanks for the great tips. I really don't want to spray either.

Stunning 👍🌿😀
