p18. John Hook. France. What Is The Next Step?
Cycling is a passion of mine, and this allows me to explore many of the remote roads looking for ‘Finds’. Some of these have a bit of a story to them......... One of my first rose find was “Fusterouau Tea” growing out of scrubby woodland on the side of the road. After talking to a few families familiar with the area, I discovered that there had been an old commemorative cross at the spot, which had disappeared many years before, swamped by the encroaching woodland. The rose had been planted at the cross and had continued to grow.
