Firstly this is my 1st ever post so if it's in wrong place apololgies.
At gardeners world live this week i spied several people with a beautiful mauve/ pink rose bush. I asked the nave; which I've now forgotten with the intention of getting it later in the day but due to tired feet i didn't & now I'm pinning my hopes on someone here knowng what it was. It was a real tradional type rose flower (i think they're called tea roses) and it looked like a delicate mauve suede.... please anyone?

They must have mentioned where they got it from, the stand it was on or the company/grower?
If not then look at a map or layout and see if you can pick out the stand or area.

That would help knowing what they grow.

Edit. Found an exhibitors list, ten pages. you might find the name, I guess there must be a stands map somewhere.

Thank ypu but no they didn't, i have looked at growers & exhibitors all in show guide but those who have websites didn't have it on there. I've looked at the main growers too & blue moon or blue for you look most likley but Im hoping someone here may think i bought one of those its a ....? They were very popular & I thought I may have spotted one on GW tv show on Friday when they were looking at what people had bought but sadly not.Thanks for the suggestion though. If not found before I'll waot until next yr :-)

If you have no luck, remember next year to make use of the plant creche. Best thing ever (and the money goes to charity). Then you only have to get your aching feet back there and collect all your lovely treasures in one go

I have had a look to see if l can see anything online that might be it, but no joy. Fingers crossed someone might know 🤞
