Roses are red?



 And by the looks of it a host of other colours that give some unusual results.
The trend for the future is for old-fashioned style roses in great colours. Now if only we could
have old fashioned scent as well, combined with disease resistance, drought
tolerance, freedom from pest and aphids, strong growth, the ability to grow anywhere and in
any condition, we'd be on to a winner ;)

Hanky Panky is a gorgeous variety with it's foliage tinged with red/purple and striking blooms.

 
 

Burgundy Ice starts off a pale pinks and fades to a wonderful almost brownish purple. 
Low on scent this Harkness Rose is full of drama.

Peachy perfection fades to pink. Old-fashioned shape with that colour fading that
is very much on trend.

 Rose of the year 2014: Lady Marmalade
