Is she not the most perfect pink? The English Rose, Constance Spry; one of the first bred by David Austin and one of the first roses I chose to plant in the garden. She has a strong myrrh fragrance and flowers only once a year, in the spring. This is the very first bloom of the season. Other buds are floating above a sea of euphorbia in one of the toughest spots in the garden. It’s taken years to make anything grow there and is still a work in progress, but it’s happening. Slowly. The greatest requirement of any gardener is patience!
Perfect pink….
