UNCLE BILL<br />

<strong>Hybrid</strong> <strong>Tea</strong> Rose. 1984. 3ft-4ft.<br />

Has been around for a few years , but we have recently added this stunner to our<br />

collection by popular<br />

demand.<br />

A lovely free flowering variety with soft pink-cream blooms.<br />

The superb high centred blooms arrive in flushes throughout the summer.<br />

An extremely attractive rose with a wonderful perfume.<br />

UNCLE WALTER<br />

<strong>Hybrid</strong> <strong>Tea</strong> Rose. 1963. 4ft plus.<br />

<strong>Hybrid</strong> <strong>Tea</strong> <strong>Roses</strong><br />

The flowers of this variety are crimson scarlet, high centred and<br />

fairly large, with about 30 wide petals, and open rather loosely on<br />

very tall stems.<br />

They are often carried in open clusters, and the overall effect is<br />

more like a big shrub than a large flowered bush.<br />

Flowers well and the continuity of bloom is maintained through<br />

summer and autumn.<br />

'Uncle Walter' needs carefully placing or it will dominate its<br />

neighbours; towards the back of a border is a suitable place, or it<br />

could be treated as a short climber and grown on a support.<br />

It grows very vigorously with a tall, free branching habit to well<br />

above average height.<br />

The leaves are large, crimson when young, then maturing to bronze green, and plentiful.<br />

A very healthy rose with a pleasant perfume.<br />

The breeder Sam McGredy named this rose after his uncle, Walter Johnston, who looked after the nursery<br />

during his infancy.<br />

VELVET FRAGRANCE (Fryperdee)<br />

<strong>Hybrid</strong> <strong>Tea</strong> Rose. 1988. 3ft-5ft.<br />

One of the deepest red roses on the market today.<br />

This beautiful award winning rose has dark red velvety textured<br />

blooms borne singly or sometimes in sprays.<br />

The superb blooms are large and high centred with over 40<br />

petals.<br />

A good continuity of blooms right through the season with attractive<br />

dark green semi-glossy foliage.<br />

The long stems make this a lovely rose for cutting and indoor<br />

decoration.<br />

It has a strong upright rather lanky habit, and makes a real statement in the garden.<br />

Highly recommended.<br />

Superb Fragrance. Also known as "Velours Parfume"<br />
