A true red rose that also flowers very early on a robust plant 5 feet tall.
Now a more commonly available single rose this Rosa ‘Canary Bird’Â is a tall growing very floriferous lemon- yellow rose with good foliage.
Whilst this rose was in full flower in a wild hedge in early May I think it had been planted specially. It had a great scent and was covered with buds to maintain the fragrant white blossom for several weeks.
Another garden based flowering single rose that had great depth of colour but less scent than most single roses.
Not quite a ‘dog rose’ this scented rose was flowering in mid May at Newby Hall Yorkshire.
