Lovely, is that a damask type? I'm under strict instruction to not buy anymore, as there is no space apparently. I'm glad I don't live near the David Austin nursery.

It’s one of these: https://www.davidaustinroses.co.uk/products/mary-rose
Think it looks a bit unusual at the moment as it’s not fully opened up yet.
Will be treating myself to a climbing rose next year when I tear down my pointless wood store and replace it with a raised bed, and this one will probably find itself out of the pot and into the planter as well. Maybe it will be joined by another, as these things always look good in threes.

Oooh that’s a nice rose. I pruned mine too late this year (or, should I say, I pruned it on time for about a decade ago before spring started getting earlier) and was worried that I’d fucked it up. Moved it out into a sunnier patch of the garden and it has finally bounced back and is looking pretty good for it.
