Elena

This lovely rose was a gift from Biz and I've been patiently waiting to blip it so that she can see progress. However, this rose was one of those which really suffered in the dry conditions of June, when we were away and they were unwatered for weeks; so only now is Elena starting to give of her best and putting out blooms. Better late than never. The odd thing is that the nearest other rose, Indiana Mae, is thriving to the point of joining the cottage 'berserker roses' club. Wonder if it's bullying Elena?
