During the last couple of days Roses have begun to fill the gardens. Here’s a quartet that are bringing us pleasure.<\/p>\n

Cardinal de Richelieu Rose, a key ingredient in “All Ego Contracts Null & Void” and a dynamo in its own right.

\nWill Baffin, one of the climbing Roses in “The Sacred Masculine” mix.<\/p>\n

Henry Kelsey, also in “The Sacred Masculine” mix. This one shares an Arbor with Will Baffin, John Cabot, and John Davis ( and why exactly are all these Roses named after Canadian explorers?????)<\/p>\n
