Put a few stems in a vase, in a room, shut the door, reenter a little while later, and you would look round to see where the lovely smell is coming from.

'Munstead Wood' is top of my rose wish list. I read that it has a strong scent and wonder whether you can verify or otherwise.Annahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10794392333038962798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081101795597600004.post-6523213896527688452015-09-10T09:16:53.408+01:002015-09-10T09:16:53.408+01:00I have another of this class of roses in a pot: Ge...I have another of this class of roses in a pot: Gertrude Jeykll which is doing quite poorly, I think there is insufficient moisture, so it will be going into the garden any day now. My MW rose is in part shade for half the way and is doing very well. The foliage is strong and disease resistant too.Stasherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02616094223215469144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8081101795597600004.post-1433223920455653012015-09-10T08:59:38.653+01:002015-09-10T08:59:38.653+01:00I very much enjoyed Eltham Palace, and guess what ...I very much enjoyed Eltham Palace, and guess what they had...

Mine is in a pot but doesn't flower especially well and I am wondering if I should find a spot for it somewhere else - I am sure it would reward me if I did...

The vase is lovely too (my husband works in enameling and using the Cloisonne technique, so I know the work involved).
