Just a rose.

 Beautiful Gertrude Jekyll.


The scent drifts through the garden, mingling with other roses nearby.

Isn't she pretty. I have Gertrude in my front garden. I love her soft pink. She's the only David Austin that I have; the others didn't like it here.

I've always loved Gertrude - must try to find one for my back fence - she does climb to new heights doesn't she?
Thoughts continue and hoping days are a little easier dear friend.

Gertrude is so lovely. She grows here in my garden, too, but is very very late this year. Thinking of and praying for you and your dear husband.

I was thrilled to see a Gertrude Jekyll rose in person when we visited England. I'd have to check my photos to see which garden we saw it in. Thank you for giving us a glimpse at yours. She is beautiful!

I do love a scented rose, so many of the hybrid type have lost the old fashioned smell. In my garden only about a third truly have that lovely rose scent and I have somewhere around 16 roses :) Yours is beautiful!

Little patches of colour

  Despite the drought and the effect it has had on gardens, there is still some colour around. I have a dry brownish lawn but in the flower ...
