Roses in Scotland
 
A friend of mine has moved from the Cotswolds to a place in Scotland
called Ballater, I spoke to her this morning and she says that she is
not going to garden, just pick up the stones and mow the lot as when it
is needed, but, she would like a rose to grow over the barn/garage,did I
know, she said with horror that they cost about $10 per. plant:-) if she
is so poor I thought that I might send her one for her birthday coming
up soon, can anyone recommend one that would grow in that part of the
world.

Hi Kate - any that are grown at the nursery linked below - which is in
Aberdeen - 30ish miles from Ballater. Just nice for the Q at Balmoral. Q
manages to grow quite a nice garden at Balmoral - the roses are a treat.
