Yeah I was really surprised I got one to take. It did have a bud on it last year. But it snapped off in the wind. Then it didn’t do anything for the rest of the year. No new growth, nothing! Thought I was going to lose it. But this year, it’s doing very well. Can’t wait to get it in the ground so it can properly establish.

Since you don't know what it is, you should give it a name - like "The Bradan Rose". Big Grin

I vaguely remember you asking whether a cutting from a bouquet would take...................and you've proved it can.

Nice find  Big Grin . Maybe I tried a mauve one on a different occasion, that didn’t take. That droopy rose definitely isn’t mauve. Thanks for refreshing my memory.

This is from a cutting I took from a rose that was in a bouquet of flowers back in 2021. The rose was a very unusual mauve. It obviously must of been dyed. Because this definitely isn’t. But I really don’t mind, because this is beautiful.




Any idea what it might be? Not that it matters.
Lovely rose. Could it be Love and Peace or Encanto?

Raging! Everyone’s favourite rose company are running a photo competition on their fb page. Open to mainland only! Oddly I’ve questioned this. Not impressed with how discriminatory they are being.

It looks to me like Masquerade, which can be either a climber or a bush rose.

Another rose for you to ponder.

I’ve taken cuttings from this rose today.

               

This is an overall image of the plant. A little tricky to see. But was hoping that you might be able to tell me if it’s a shrub that’s not been pruned in a long time or is it climber that just isn’t doing a very good job of it. 

   

It definitely isn’t trying to grab that rowan next to it. 

Any ideas? 

Thank you.
