G&K's Rose Progress

Just a quick update on the blooming progress of Arthur Bell, clambering over the entrance to the kitchen garden. Lots of flowers in full bloom now with a beautiful scent as I deadhead for continued blooms from the precarious position on the ladder. The flowers start as deep yellow streaked with red buds, maturing to softer yellow and then lemon as the flowers open. I love the variation in flower colour and the proliferation of this sunny rose. Lifts the spirits even on the wettest June day...

I can't believe how much it has spread and grown, it looks beautiful.
