Hi All,
I'm hoping someone can help me identify this rose. Its a tall Apricot, with a mild fragrance - hard to describe exactly what it smells like. I'll try and post some pics here if I can work out how :)

We need someone from Australia to drop in and take a look. How big are the blooms and do they come in clusters, or singly like this photo?

If I saw that rose here (California) my first guess would be redgold, which is fairly widely grown here. But I don't have a clue what is widely grown there.

Single blooms. The plant is likely to be quite old as most of the garden was planted in the late 60's

Red Gold was popular in Aus. I don't have it in my present garden, so can't check the details.

Having a look at the description for Red gold - its not that.. The bloom only has red edges when it is damaged - normally it is a uniform apricot colour. Also it has never flowered in a cluster.

Hi, I'm wondering if you sell roses? Or is your garden a private one? I'm particularly interested in old world roses.

Thanks

When I add plants to "my garden" I always get the message "0 additions and 1 deletion" it doesn't seem like I can select anything to add.
I've used both Firefox 2 and Explorer 6 and both show the same symptoms.

Thanks

Bret
