I checked out some of the neighbours gardens to see how their roses are doing. They look good so that means mine should do well too. Right? I've checked out some web sites and I've decided to go for the hybrid tea rose. I like the look of the "Ingrid Bergman" and it's a beautiful red colour. (You'd think I knew what I was talking about) Now I have to find a garden centre that sells it! I have 2nd and 3rd preferences as well, just in case. I like "Blue Moon" and "Deep Secret" so here goes. Brendy.[/i Ingrid Bergman IS nice. It's a low grower, so make sure that you plant it in front of other plants. It really has a nice aroma as well. Keep in mind that it DOES tend to blue a bit, as do a lot of really deep red blooms. Also, the bloom size decreases dramatically in the middle of the summer when it gets hot (although I don't know if you get that sort of weather where you are). The nice thing about IB is that it almost has a velvety looking texture to it. It's not a "shiny" red, but a matte finish. It holds nicely in the vase. I got mine from Edmunds Roses in Oregon, but since you're in the UK, I can't help you out. Perhaps you could contact them at their website and see if they know of an English distributor. Actually, turns out that I CAN help you out.
