        My son purchased the rose for my birthday. I absolutely loved it. The colour is so delicate and pretty and the frag is divine. I purchased one for my friends 70th birthday because I knew she would be delighted with it.

        I have 23 David Austin roses and much more room for more. A new rose arch has been erected on the side of the house. Which colour shall I choose to go with my 3 Elizabeth Roses that are beautiful ?
