Here is one that has started to flower, it is "Golden Showers". What I am confused about thou is that our "Constance Spry" is so far behind, as of yesterday it had only two buds about to open. As I have shown our "Banksia" is in full bloom.

My 'Constance Spry' is running late also. (All of them)

But there is a bunch of other stuff out. Very Happy

I added some roses to the local show on the weekend to boost numbers and got first prize on my container of assorted roses and container of Old Fashioned/David Austin roses. Was chuffed. Very Happy

Here's some happy 'Mme Gregoire Straechelin' doing her thing today Smile
