A rose by any other name

yellowroses

...would never smell as sweet as these, snapped in the back garden yesterday.

I've no idea what they're called but the scent is divine.

Yup, looks remarkably like a rose to me. Or, as we call 'em out here, 'une rose'. Notice my amazing command of the Grench (Grench? I meant 'French') lingo.

I know! I know! But, as always, I just cannae help having a laugh at someone else's expense! Anyway, I think you'll find it's a Gloriatus Maximus Whiteussymus - a rare variety originally grown by that highly revered rose grower, Michael Taker. ;)

They are gorgeous, none of the other roses smell anything like as fragrant. I try to keep at least one in my room during the summer so I can smell them in the morning while I'm getting ready for work.
