Sorry if someone has already mentioned this, but Peter Beales have 50% off bare root roses 😉
But they don't have the two I want . Mid-summer Nights Dream and Kew Gardens. I looked and would have ordered them. Guess I'll just have to wait til next year.
Based in Sussex, I garden to encourage as many birds to my garden as possible.
@Marlorena I have just come across this thread and I have found it very informational, thank you for the pictures and your insights. So far I have only liked many petalled roses but now Blush Noisette and Ghislaine de Feligonde made it to my garden :-).
I am tempted to buy 'Pink Martini' from the half price bareroots sale but I will pause it until I hear more from you this year.
Late to finish, but loved this thread, many thanks for sharing your knowledge. I don't think I would ever tire of a rose index or review thread
I glad you featured The Lark Ascending, I suppose it's a simple rose, but there's just something about it and it glows. As a yellow flower fan, happy to see so many featured too. Thank you
Marlorena, I have thoroughly enjoyed your thread! Could you do another one about companion planting with roses? I think that would be very interesting too.

..thank you.. I'm pleased you found something of interest here..
'Pink Martini' is looking good even right now, with the new leaves, one of my best foliaged roses in Spring..
