When my dad died in 2012 I looked after Mum and bought her some roses to put in pots to help give her something to focus on ( she loved roses). When Mum died during the Covid lockdowns and we cleared her place I took over her rather forlorn and neglected pot roses. This year, after careful pruning and feeding they have come into their own. The pots are just plonked in amongst an otherwise boring border and have helped to give it some much needed colour.
