Double Delight for Fragrance

In the previous post I promised to give you a list of my favourite fragrant roses. Well, I couldn’t limit it to 5 perfect roses so here is my top ten list of the best fragrant roses that I have chosen for my garden.

Choose any one of the following roses and you’ll be captivated by its lovely perfume.
