Hi Karen, she's one of my new roses this year - I am pretty sure she is Darcy Bussell - if not she's Lady of Megginch, I'll check the label in the light tomorrow and let you know.

Hi Karen,

I was wrong on both counts, it is known as 'Sophy's Rose' http://www.davidaustin.com/english/showrose.asp?showr=3474

She smells as good as she looks too.

I had a feeling before I opened your post that it would reveal a rose :)

And well worth the look too.

Surprising number of them still flowering - maybe 10 different ones at the moment, but some look better for the rain/wind than others.
