That is sad news.
I brought a seven sisters rose from him for my Nan.

He had a good innings, enjoyed what he did for a living and passed peacefully, what more can anyone ask for RIP

A perfectionist with his flowers, and his roses are such good quality- even I who don't pay much attention to flowers have a couple of his climbing roses.
