ReplyDeleteYikes, I have planted Rambling Rector AND Etain, two ramblers, to climb a large Oak (60'+) hope it was not a mistake. Please advise.

I don't grow Belinda but I agree hybrid musks are a very deserving group of roses! I love Buff Beauty too, one of my favorites, clean and fragrant, with lots of blooms.
ReplyDeletePhillip, I am going backwards in your alphabet of roses and this post has me in awe of your talent! Stunning images of your garden!!
