Can't tempt me with that one - it is already on order from Treloars :-) I was going to buy it one day at Misty Downs, but it had dreadful soggy balled up flowers, so I bought S de St Anne's instead. They can go side by side when I get that bit of garden extended to accomodate.

Hi Pete-yes-I made it myself.:)
The story is-my own roses and a flatbed scanner-and a few hours on the computer.
Souvenir de la Malmaison can ball-I have mine growing with Mme Isaac Pereire up a silver birch below the possum platform so she doesn't get rained on.
I have the bush version as well as the climber-both beautiful.In perth the bush version NEVER stopped flowering so a rose that likes heat.
Thanks everyone-glad you like the scans-thought they may be obsolete with the fantastic pics done with Digital Cameras.
regards

Well thats just wonderful Sandie. You have inspired me to upgrade the pics on our website and take it up another level. Your pics reflect the reason why I love my roses so much. I think your pictures are amazing.......keep up the great work!
Ps , have you ever though about selling them in frames?...Just a thought!

Another lovely pic. Sandie beautifully presented, I have had this rose & it constantly balled I think because of heavy due each morning sounds like you have the perfect spot

Cinmarron....I bought this rose last year as climbing Seduction bur as soon as it bloomed had my doubts. At the moment it is covered in blooms but during the really hot days of summer sometimes balled has a gorgeous perfume too. I grew the bush form when we lived in Busselton and it does look similar.
Cheers Jeni

Hi Jeni-yep-you have Souv de la Mal for sure-way better than
Seduction I think.:)I love the perfume too-like an expensive french perfume-refined and haunting.
