Madam Alfred Carriere

Madame Alfred Carriere is a rambling rose that has conquered our Golden Rain tree )o called because it leaves a shower of small golden petals on the ground after it blooms and not because it gives succour to those enjoying, ahem, "water sports"

Normally the blooms are found well above ground so it is  pleasure to find one we can actually see and smell for once!

Madame is very beautiful in her clotted cream clothes. That's quite hard to say . . .

She is. Nice alliteration too, Syncy!
