But have my first flower. Not a tall variety, Ruby, as it is being grown as a cut flower:

Also growing few artic giant, come of which are well over 6 foot so far, must get longer canes!

I have been very pleased with it, we are using them as cut flowers and once you remove the top flower the lateral buds go mad and produce lovely flowers about 20cm across on stems about 30 to 50 cm long. Stunning in a vase!
