of course 'iceberg ' white and scented- which nearly everyone has here . I had the bush and climber as well .

and tulips too ... so restarting on those . this year although I did try last year but they rotted . as a couple [in the old home ] we always planted tulips each year so we found masses of them growing everywhere by the time I left to come to this tiny flat and pitiful garden . couldnt save many . maybe it was meant to be...

wish I knew the name of the above apricot color rose in the bouquet . its absolutely my cup of tea . love it and you are so lucky to have it .. cherish it and she'll grow forever Annie ...
