    @Oliya the reason there aren’t many photos online is because it’s a new rose this year and new to me.  It only became available in November. Found this...

    Apparently David Austin have retired LD Braithwaite. Someone on Facebook asked them when it would be back in stock and they were told it won’t be.

    @Oliya I have Meteor.
    Speaking of retiring DA roses - I heard whispers of Septer'd Isle potentially on the chopping list? Has anyone heard? It's not top of my to-have list but pretty high. I'm considering whether to get it just in case.

    @rossdriscoll13 helpmefind states that Meteor has been released in Germany in 2020, so was wondering if anyone has already grown it.
    Do let us know how you get on with it and make sure to post lots of pictures;)

    @Oliya I hear there was trouble getting Meteor grafting material from Germany due to Brexit that is why there’s not much buzz around it, no one was able to grow lots of it.

    Their garden do look pristine isn't it @Busy-Lizzie Sounds like you had a great day.

    I too agree on Pitter- Patter winning awards for the way he presents his roses.

    Sounds as though you had a great time @Busy-Lizzie .. lovely photos too.. 
    I expect the staff were relieved about the take over and carrying on as normal.

    I have 'Sweet Siluetta'.. it grew 6 feet in just 3 months. I'm not sure which way it's going to go this season, it's on my shed.

    My Romantic Siluetta is growing on the shed too, @Marlorena. It hasn’t grown quite as tall as yours, but mine is in a pot. I’m not sure it’s a good place for it as I found the flowers are scorching in the afternoon sun. I might need to find a different place for it.
