hello
I am considering purchasing one of these roses and was hoping for your opinions
I have actually only seen blush noisette in real life, and its just the perfect tone of lilac pink/white that Im after, however I really don't like the rich clove smell, to the point that it is putting me off buying it.
I much prefer a sweet rose smell, and have come across little rambler and perennial blush which look very similar to blush noisette. I wondered if anyone here has seen them in real life and if so what do you think of them? how strong is the pink?
many thanks

my lil' rambler is wonderful, fab smell, long flowering period and the flowers are a gorgeous white flushed with pink. i love it. the smell is classic sweet rose (to me) and the pink is very slight. i do not like pink roses at all.

hello Darren - thank you so much for your reply! im very glad to hear the pink is very slight
What size is your little rambler is it easy to maintain and can it be kept fairly tidy? How big are the individual flowers?
thanks for your help

the flowers are held in clusters.... thinking back to last summer i would say each flower is 5cm across... mine is in a big clay pot and is well behaved ! roses are not my favourite plants but i had to have this one - and if i can keep it happy then anyone can !!! just give it something to climb up .
