Time traveling back to summer today to the flowers of rose 'Blush Noisette'. She arrived in the winter of January 2019 as bare root plant. She was the first rose I had ever planted as a bare root plant and it was hard to believe that the twiggy sticks I unpacked were going to turn into a rose of beauty but they did. She is a climbing rose and has been around since 1817. She has been trouble free, repeat flowers (still a few still hanging on now) and is strongly scented. A clematis viticella 'Blue Angel' dangles through her structure and they are briefly in flower together.
This week I'm joining in with fellow blogger Cathy's 'A Week Of Flowers' over at 'Words and Herbs'. Do pay her a visit if you haven't already along with the other bloggers keeping her company this week.
Let's see if my comment goes through today... I love your rose, Anna. And I am not a rose person at all, but this looks exactly how a rose should. Thank you for sharing!

ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect rose.
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely rose to cheer this chilly grey day!
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely shaped open bloom, and the rose buds are jostling around in perfect formation. Does it have have good rosehips? Maybe you have deadheaded, so cannot possibly comment?
ReplyDeleteI thought you had your Blush Noisette longer than this, Anna? I have evicted mine now,but still agree it's a pretty rose - it must look lovely with Blue Angel
ReplyDeleteI'm drooling over that beautiful rose! I know the name, but have failed somewhere along the line failed to realise how lovely it is. Beautiful!
