What a vision of beauty to start my day with! Does this lovely thing have an equally lovely scent?

  I am pleased you like it 🙂 Oh yes, it has a very sweet, heavy scent. One of the reasons I chose it, and for its colour when I planted it last year. And it is heavy in blooms, and will bloom throught summer if I keep cutting the spent blooms off.

    Ah… its a perfect rose then! You’re a fortunate man. You enjoy your rose-infused summer my friend. I can only dream of such things stuck as I am in the depths of winter!

    Thank you very much, I shall. 🙂 Yet before we both know it you will be coming into your spring there, and into my autumn here. The year has flown so quickly already!

    No. The furthest I have got is the Isle of White, lol 🙂 But I know people who have and who have family over there in NZ and they love it 🙂

  Thank you, Peggy 🙂 Small bees loved it too. They rolled about inside of it.
