Lovely Azelea @WhereAreMySecateurs ! I only have a little one in a pot on the table but if we ever move (which would likely be up to Scotland) those and Rhododendrons would be on my list! Always loved them.
Has anyone got jacqueline du pre? I dont normally go for white but I keep looking at it, I love the pink stamens and thinking it would probably look very nice with mme Antoine Maari and Munstead Wood out the front.
Lovely gardens shown here, lots of things other than roses to give pleasure.
The rain bypassed us, my water butts are nearly empty, unbelievably little rain for April. But shame there is both no rain and no sun today.
I am beginning to think that the application of tea leaves does help the aphid situation. Last year was really bad for aphids here and I only started applying tea leaves after they'd arrived. This year I started as the roses grew leaves and I have relatively few aphids, given you all have a lot then maybe the tea is the difference.
Odyssey has lots of buds, first properly opened todayEngland's Rose has mutant first flowers but the plant is making an impact now
..such colourful Spring gardens with all the bulbs, and that clematis is wonderful.. delighted to hear Mme Antoine Mari is doing so well for you @JessicaS .. your pergola is looking great..
@Victoria Sponge .. fabulous, like a cottage garden. I've always admired your little bridge. It's quite stylish.
Odyssey is lovely isn't it @tack. I used to have it. Â
I think edhelka has Jacqueline du Pre, I'm sure somebody here does..
.. no rain here.. I feel guilty having to pressure wash the pavers.Â

No proper rain here, just a bit of sprinkle. I am missing wallflowers this year. These are looking nice at the moment.
