Hello Patricia, could you please tell me the name of the pink/red rose on the right side of the background ? Thank you, Thomas.	REPLY

Riethmuller’s 1955 ‘Titian’. Not really the recommended colour companion for ‘Madame Caroline Testout’, but in 1999 when I planted this bed, I didn’t really know what I was doing.	REPLY

Thank you Patricia, this is a nice rose. My attention was caught by its luminosity (member hebe says 'glowing, light red'). It reminded me of a rose I am trying to identify which however musn't be Titian : the receptacle has a different shape. Titian lineage could have given me some tracks but unfortunately it is not recorded...	REPLY
