Roses For A Wall

[carlott]

My son has asked me what to find out the cost of "those yellow roses for a wall"? The name may start with Harry *?

Any suggestions?

morning Carl.
I think there is a yellow rose called golden showers that climbs. David Austin does a good rose, there is probably a searce facility at his website. Or the Harkness site might be good. There is another famous rose grower he had a fabulous mistouche you know hair that grows under your nose. he was called Harry something. I can't remember his surnace, but I think it began with a w. Hope that helps.
Rose.

Many thanks Rosie. The only one found so far starting with Harry is the wrong colour. I am seeing my son later today so can ask for more clues. I have just ordered a container rose for my BiL from David Austin and are hoping to visit their gardens before the rose season finishes. Also we are currently enjoying 3 beautiful roses - Charles Rennie Mackintosh - that Tiglet's Mum bought her. These came to us as bare rooted roses and have surprised and delighted with the amount of blooms in their first year.

Lovely picture Carl.
I must get myself a camera that can take pictures like that.

(Mine broke, beyond repair, yesterday).

The correct name is Arthur Bell. True to form they want to find the cheapest place possible never mind buying from a reputable grower with good disease resistance
