One day  I found myself in a large bed of roses and flowering annuals when I spotted this particular rose.  A friend of mine would call it a ‘fruit salad’ garden as it had pretty much a bit of everything with no apparent colour scheme.  I had been somewhat overwhelmed by this riot of colour and was lucky to have seen this beautiful unfolding rose bud.  Unfortunately the plant was not tagged so I don’t know the variety but I suspect it is probably a type of David Austin.
