    I can give you the name of one hardy climbing rose, 'Best Wishes'. It produces large fragrant, scarlet red and yellow blooms. It grows between 3-5ft and needs full sun. I would post you a picture but I haven't worked out how to do it yet!:o

    There used to be a street named after Chuck Norris, but it was changed because nobody crosses Chuck Norris and lives.

    Thanks for putting in the pics dollparts. How did you do it? Shame the rose I recommended appears to be more yellow than red!

    I googled the phrase 'best wishes rose' and searched under images. Then right click copy URL image and go to reply to thread. click on the icon at top of box that looks like the envelope with a postage stamp (when you hover over it the one you are looking for is insert image.) Then clear the existing http// text and paste your link and post! Hey presto your image is there!
