We were away for less than a week, and when we left there were hardly any roses out. We came back and the garden seems to have exploded into bloom!
I couldn’t remember all the names while filming, but I’ve checked the labels since:
Lady of Shalott (David Austin) – the orangey-coloured one that I showed second.
Roald Dahl (David Austin) - rhe peachy/apricot coloured one
Eustacia Vye (David Austin) – these were the ones I stopped to smell and said were incredible. I’ve got three of them, they’re absolutely covered in flowers and the fragrance is amazing. I think they could be my favourite ❤️
I’m not sure what some of the others are, but these were the ones that still had their labels on!
For anyone who enjoys gardening, I thought I’d share. And isn’t summer just the best time of year? Nothing beats seeing the garden come alive after a few days away☀️
