The White Lady Banks rose in Tombstone began as a cutting from Scotland in 1885.

Its trunk now measures over twelve feet around, and each spring it blankets 8,000 square feet in a sea of white blooms.

A rare artefact recovered from the battlefield at Culloden has sold for nearly £19,000 at auction, far surpassing expectations.

A cannonball, a rare piece of Jacobite history, engraved with the words “Ogilvy Culloden 16 April 1746” , had been expected to fetch between £3,000 and £5,000. However, fierce bidding at Lyon & Turnbull’s Scotland Collected sale in Edinburgh on Wednesday (August 20) drove the final price to £18,900.

The battlefield relic was not the only standout item. A brocaded gown, reputedly worn at the Palace of Holyroodhouse by Lady Margaret Ogilvy, wife of David Ogilvy, 6th Earl of Airlie, sold for £20,160, almost double its estimate of £8,000 to £12,000.

Both items formed part of the Airlie Collection, a selection of more than 80 lots from the Ogilvy family, Earls of Airlie, who played a notable role in Scotland’s Jacobite history.
