Roses, roses, roses...

I love roses. I love everything about them. The look. The smell. I just do not want anyone buying me any. I do love to see them in my yard though. I felt bad cause one of my rose buses did not make it thru the winter but this one did. We do not know what kind it is but I have been emailing rose societys to see if they know. We found it growing behind my in laws one day and transplanted it several years ago. We have a white one too but I like this one better.

I'm no expert, but it looks like a rugosa type of rose to me. If it's like ours, it's very hardy and totally resistent to aphids etc.

I am still waiting on a reply from the rose society. You might be right though.
