Would you like a rose named after you?

I’ve put up another collage from Amanda’s garden which I wrote about earlier. I think the property covers five acres but it’s not all garden. A few years after the first opening, a rose breeder created a beautiful yellow rose and named it Amanda. It is now a feature of the garden. There were areas of lawn encircled with garden beds with all sorts of plants. All the roses are named. Various individuals had stalls dotted around the place. One man was painting a bird and an interested crowd was watching. Another guy was representing a wildlife rescue service and had a black cockatoo sitting on his shoulder. The collage shows one of the garden areas, some roses, red poppies and another daisy-type bush that I didn’t recognise. Edit: the last parragraph whould read: The collage shows (top left) one of the garden areas. Below it is an area with tables and chairs along with marquees where people were selling various items. Top right shows an Amanda’s rose bush and purple statice below that.
