Iceberg

This rose is called Iceberg, and maybe it is cooling to think of icebergs on a hot day like today. I have had this rose for many years and it has never been very strong , but in this year when all the roses have put in an exceptional show , it has done quite well. My tidy-uppers came this morning and dead headed all the roses. Now I have to wait for the second spell of flowering, I just hope it will be as good as the first.
