Some beautiful roses on here. Aloha and Shropshire Lad are next on my list but it's growing longer by the minute. The roses are really starting to get going now.
Gertrude J always does well and smells delicious.
Rambler Paul's Noel is going strong, this year it has reached about 20ft I can see some flowering at the top of a Rowan/Ivy column I have in the garden.
Mortimer Sackler always looks lovely next to the Sambucus
I love Olivia Rose when she first starts to open.
Most recent purchase is Wollerton Old Hall which I hope will frame the front door when it gets going.
I looked it up too and found shrub and climber forms but different flowers.
David Austin d repeat ramblers - Malvern Hills, Snowgoose, Mady of the Lake, Albrichton which they have bred - plus things like Ghislaine de Féligonde and Phyllis Bide
I'm not seeing the white/cream Moonlight being described anywhere as a rambler or a climber. Just a shrub rose that like to branch and scramble. There is another peach coloured Moonlight which is a different beast, it seems. Just trying to make sure I'm on the same page as Pete, as I have been looking for a rose like this for a while.
Great photos everyone. @Marlorena - thanks. Your roses and companion plants are always a treat to see. @Ffoxglove - thanks. Eyes for You also has a nice scent. @B3 - I like your mystery rose. @Pete.8 - That is one spectacular rose!
@Pete.8 The one I linked above - David Austin site - mentions it as a shrub rose. Are there different incarnations of the rose, I wonder? Or perhaps the lines between types get blurred. I didn't know repeat ramblers were a thing. Thanks for that.
That definitely the one @Fire and I likely bought it from DA here is the rest of it on my side of the fence - my neighbour has bit less, but it's quite big now, about 20ft wide and 12-15ft high (as it trails over into next door) - I did say I've never pruned it
@Fire Here's a closeup for you- ALL of the white in the above pic is the rose (I planted it 20+ years ago and not been pruned.)

Knowledge is knowing that a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
