My name is Sam and I am new to the group but quickly become a keen
gardener after completely transforming my gravel pit of a back garden.

Hmmm. Lots of compost and horshhhhh?

I was wondering if anyone would be able to help me track down a
specific Rose.

The name of the rose is "Chloe" it is a shrub rose which originates
from Denmark. I believe it is pink in colour with a strong scent.

I've had a look in a couple of books by Svend Poulsen and it's not
mentioned, so it will be fairly modern - well, since the mid 'fifties,
anyway.

I would dearly love to buy one of these as I would like to plant it for
a pet that I have to have put to sleep. Her name is Chloe and I feel it
would be really lovely if I can get a rose with the same name to
remember her by.

I have only been able to find 1 place on the net that sells it but they
are out of stock until the autumn.

Try Peter Beales Roses, London Road, Attleborough, Norfolk. 01953 454707

Thanks Rusty I will let you know how I get on ;o)
