Wisley 2008 ❀<br />

This is a rose of exceptional delicacy and charm bearing<br />

some resemblence to the old Alba <strong>Roses</strong>. Perfect,<br />

shallowly cupped rosettes are held in small clusters. The<br />

color is a very pure, soft pink, the outer petals paling a<br />

little towards the edge. There is a fresh, fruity fragrance<br />

with hints of Tea and raspberry. A fine and very healthy<br />

shrub rose.<br />

New English <strong>Roses</strong><br />

Sir John Betjeman ❀<br />

A rose with a more modern character than most English<br />

<strong>Roses</strong>. The flowers are produced very freely and are held<br />

in small clusters. The full-petalled, wide open rosettes are<br />

a bright, deep pink which, unusually, intensifies with age.<br />

This healthy variety is a superb choice for creating a<br />

bright splash of colour.<br />
