Can I have some please

I see you have hair around your roses. Do you find it improves the flower of the health of the plant. I have been told hair is great for them
Magic rose photos, love the clothes basket full

where did you get Tess of the d'urbenvilles? that is the name of a near by village up here

Sonya, most of the mail order nurseries carry Tess, Mistydowns does as with Treloars, any that carry David Austin roses will have it. Hope this helps

Hi Sonya,
That's not really "hair" around the roses - it's carpet wool. My sheep grow a fair bit of it and I use it on the garden as mulch, since the mills don't really want the lower quality lines (there's a rant topic...)
As to where I got Tess - from Treloars, as mentioned above.
I must admit I was pretty chuffed to see that my Tess was bigger and better than the Tess at the DA nursery in the UK. (small things... hehe)

AD, can you tell me the rose that are in this shot please,

This is the shot I was trying to get

Pierre de Ronsard. Although there are a couple of others on the left (can't recall offhand what they were).

Hi! It is blowing a gale outside and I enjoyed sitting by the fire and looking at your lovely photos.

My bushes are almost bare and I must gear up ready for pruning!

Your roses reminded me that I lost "Reines de Violettes" and must replace it!

I'm like you Flori...cold, wet,the leaves falling off the bushes,...the pictures look great and I can't wait for the warm weather to come

Your roses bring back happy memories of my visits to Golden Vale Nursery. I've still got copies of my (huge) orders from their wonderful catalogue. I think they've closed now, but most of there roses are here

Dave, might thread jack for a minute if that is ok.
Wendy(AutumnDamask) is down that way, she might be able to fill us uin if they(GoldenVale) are open or not
