Thanks, Victor, I do too. It has stunning buds and then goes through a bunch of changes until it is a soft yellow. I planted it 2007 from Dan's Great Lake Coop. It is a Rugosa Hybrid that may get 6 feet tall. It doesn't like to be pruned. My kind of rose!

Wha, daffs?? Delphs? Too funny, I think you are working too hard. Nice results for sure. I keep trying with roses, but rugosa roses are always good for me. I can live with black spot.

Ge1836, love the glass tile work, nothing bland about you, baby! Grab bars are just horizontal stripper poles for those beyond retirement age!
