Should be a standard rose Kata, as it's a replacement....kata wrote:Thanks Gray, It was a superb offer indeed Jan made me, I was thinking they may send me a small rose not a new standard.
So, what are you up to?
I've started to plant out a border in the front garden, a day ago, but this has been halted due to this chilly weather today and also forecast for tomorrow. So I'll wait until Sunday when it's meant to be warmer???

Planted so far are; Clump of Bamboo, divided from a larger clump as posted earlier in my blog. Beschorneria yuccoides which i had growing in a nice ovate green glazed pot that i realized
if the root ball got any bigger it would be impossible to take out without smashing the pot (wife's favorite pot, so i daren't). Musa basjoo, Variegated Arundo donax and some bedding Begonias ( Chilli chocolate mix) which have a chocolate brown leaves which are slightly glossy.The plants already established in the border are Aucuba,Flowering cherry, Lavender, Penstemon, copper sedge grass and the last surviving Echium which i planted out last year which is romping away now....
So with any luck it will look jungly by the end of August...........or not!
Keeping my eyes on an Acer in the window (its been there for three weeks) for when its reduced... 
No work & no gardening at home....roll on Sunday when it's meant to be dry & warm.....
