Climber - Hybrid Tea. Peter Beales describes this as an "outstandingly beautiful climber." I agree! If you like single roses you will love Meg's large, scented blooms of buff yellow flushed with apricot and peach. Prominent russet-red stamens complete the picture. Glossy green healthy foliage. 1954.

Climber - Noisette. Masses of milky white, cupped and very fragrant blooms that are blushed with pink decorate the relatively thorn free canes. An exceptional rose that reaches great heights. Repeats well from spring through to autumn and the pale green foliage is lush and abundant. 1879.

This is a wonderful rose to grow through large trees where it will seduce you with its fragrance and beauty as you walk beneath.

A climbing sport of 'Ophelia', but of a slightly deeper blush pink colour.

Climber Modern. This is an absolutely gorgeous rose, beautiful in bud opening to deliciously double, fully cupped blooms with the most heady fragrance. The petals are softest velvety pink. Very feminine and pretty, shows good disease resistance too. 1991.

'Nahema' is also the name of a revered scent made by Guerlain.

Climber - Wichuraiana rambler. A well loved and much admired rose with clusters of semi-double, soft pink blooms that are sweetly scented. The complementary foliage shows good disease resistance. Flowers continuously throughout the summer and will tolerate poorer soils and some shade. 1930.

New Dawn was voted the World Federation of Rose Societies favourite rose in 1997 - 67 years after it was first introduced - now that's special. Also has a Royal Horticulture Society Award of Garden Merit (AGM).

Climber Modern. In Penny Lane there is... a rose with beautiful, double, honey pink blooms and a delicious fragrance. Multi award winner - Rose of the Year in 1998 (UK). Shows good disease resistance and repeats well. Penny Lane will certainly be in your ears and in your eyes.. la de dah de dah! 1997.

Climbing Hybrid Tea. Large full blooms that look like little round cabbages but oh so much prettier. The flowers are creamy white with over tones of lavender pink. Nice fragrance. Strong vigorous grower with bright green generous foliage. 1987.

FYI Pierre de Ronsard (1524-1584) was a French Poet who was popular in court about the time of Mary Queen of Scots. He was also an avid gardener. The breeder, Meilland honoured him by the naming of this lovely rose. Poetic justice wouldn't you say?
