Performing rose
Roses are now starting to come into their own - spurred on by the sunny spells and the sudden downpours we have been experiencing of late. 'Evelyn', a modern English rose developed by David Austin Roses, has had its best year in my garden and is loving the unsettled conditions. In previous years I had a bit of black spot but a good prune in the Spring has really helped it. The pink and apricot double blooms are really attractive. It can be used as a medium shrub or short climber and has an old rose fragrance mixed with fresh peaches.
