Gorgeous flowers, Scarlet! Is the orange rose the same as in your profile picture? I covet one this colour!

Yes it is! It glows when the sun is on it.
David Austin Carolyn Knight....it does fade in the sun.

My Gertrude Jekyll roses this year have been very pale.

Beautiful Scarlet. You’ve been work flipping hard on that.  That’s exactly what I want my new flower beds to look like .
I’m also a huge fan of that peach rose & that stunning dark purple clematis and everything else 

Fantastic Scarlet, what is the name of the orange rose in post 15, your garden look a good size, which is something I would like, as for whither you have double posted photos, when they are so nice to see, it's not a problem, but over and above that, you are allowed to be forgetful as you get older

thank you Spec! I think that's a compliment

The dark purple clematis is etoile violette - chop down in Spring and it bounces back.
£5 for 3 in Asda

A superb garden and we all know how much work goes into something that size. I envy you your 'flower' sense.

I’m not going to my nearest Asda in Glasgow just for a clematis, no matter how pretty     .

now I know the name I’ll keep an eye out for one a little closer to home   .

I've tried to take cuttings and I've never had any luck - then a friend said they were in Asda! Bargain.

Thank you JJB, I'm certainly shattered this year - if if only I didn't have to battle ground elder
