Clicking on the photos gives no close-up of the photo, only a little blue box with a question mark in it --- since last night.

Working for me now, too -- ephemeral gremlin, I guess. Thanks!

'Ephemeral Gremlin' would be a great name for a rose. :)

Or pop group, or video game, or collection of verse. Etc.

I've grown roses that COULD have been called that, would have been apt. :-) Not the "Comtesse de Rocquigny' here, though -- a lovely, lovely rose. Our only issue is that she maybe wants to be a pillar or a very large shrub (8' cane the first year in the ground, then more long canes this second year), where I was just thinking "shrub". But, I'm in love, so whatever she wants.

The photo "gremlin" is back, though, for me. Right now, the newest photos (first page) for this rose load fine, but older photos on subsequent pages won't enlarge when clicked on -- just gives a blue question box and the photo's id number on the left + caption in small print on the right at the top of the page and nothing else. Not happening with other rose varieties I just looked up and tried, only this one, and same thing happens in different browsers.

According to Vic. Lewis book "The Romance of the Rose" this rose is named for Comtesse Marie de Rocquigny: "...Comtesse Marie was of Irish stock, nee Connelly, that emigrated to France in the 18th century. She married in 1871, the Comte Robert de Rocquigny a member of a very old Normandy family."
