I have a wonderful hedging rose in flower at the moment, the smell is
amazing. A friend asked me what it was called and I had to hide my
ignorance by diving into the border to find the label, the name on the
label says it is Rosa Rugosa Japanese Rose, the picture shows a single
rose but mine is not a single by any stretch of the imagination, the
hips will be there later, small spiky thorns are there but the flower
is different, I need educating I think. I must switch off the p.c. as
we are having a belting thunderstorm here and power cuts, better be
safe than sorry

There are varieties of which one beauty is Roseraie de l'Hay. They
make an excellent Bill the Burglar repellent!
