Hybrid Tea. This Romeo is described as healthy and strong, beautifully formed, with good weather resistance and a nice fragrance. Sounds like the man, oops, rose for me! The blooms are a passionate crimson red and produced continuously, an exceptional rose for picking. 1995.

The late spring flowers are double, dainty, pure white and scented. A lovely little rose that likes a warm sheltered spot.

Climber. This special little rose is spectacular in early spring around about the end of September. Masses of tiny double pale butter yellow blooms smother the arching stems and emit a gentle fragrance. The profuse foliage is almost thornless, evergreen and canes can reach 5m. Recognised in 1825

Damask. An ancient Rose that has an uncertain history but could possibly be from Iran. The dark pink-purple rosette shaped blooms are borne on slender stems in summer and have a strong fragrance. Responds well to hard pruning. To quote the Rosarian Peter Beales "well worth a place in any garden".

Gallica. AKA Gallica An ancient rose (12th -17th Century) that is the stuff of myth and legend. It is hardy with few thorns and matt green foliage. The semi-double blooms are a very striking combination of crimson, pink and are pleasantly scented. Summer flowering. Deciduous

Rugosa. This strongly scented rose has beautiful semi-double, velvety wine-red flowers with a hint of purple. It is constantly in bloom over a long period. One of the best loved Rugosas with good reason. Nice dark green foliage which colours well in the autumn. Very hardy and tolerant. 1901.

The strongly scented flowers are followed by giant tomato-shaped hips. Hips are suitable for refreshing Rose Hip Tea.
