The rose in Jo Ann's photo is 'Julia Renaissance'. She writes, "I just planted 'Sonia Rykiel' in my garden this year, along with 'Paul Bocuse'. Both are quite robust, yet very different from each other. 'Paul Bocuse' is very upright, yet bushy, with larger leaves. The flowers are almost always in clusters, and the fragrance is unusual and musky. 'Sonia Rykiel' has a more spreading and graceful habit. The blooms are a clear, warm pink, and the fragrance is heavy old rose. They are generally born in clusters of 2 or 3, but many times singlely. This is a really delightful rose to have in the garden or in the vase. I am very pleased with both of these plants, and would certainly try more Generosas in the future."
