    Hi,
    So sorry to hear of your loss.
    Found this for you Lonicera japonica 'Halliana'. Hall's Japanese honeysuckle.
    Found it on the RHS site. Looks very nice.

      Thank Nvg, worth considering if I can't find anything else, where to plant it is also a potential set back

        Sorry to hear about your FiL, GL.
        Could you dedicate a tree in his memory in a local wood? Unique Woodland Dedication Gifts | Woodland Trust Shop
        I have several trees like this, and, although you don't know the exact tree, it feels good to be able to visit the wood and know that one of them is "yours".

          Have found a Hebe called Newby Hall. From looking round several sites trying to find a supplier it looks as if it is from Newby Hall in Ripon and people have bought it from there.

                  So sorry to hear about your father-in-law, Greenleaves.

                  There's a rose called Hyde Hall if that's any help.


                  Or if pink's not your thing, there's one called Wollerton Old Hall
                  Location - Leicestershire - Chisit-land
                  Endless wonder.

                      Thank you very much everyone, I like all the ideas so might have re-arrange the garden. He loved hearing about the allotment so I will definitely grow the Sweet Pea over the plot.

                      I will look at the naming of the rose as well

                      Thank you again
