Pretty good volume to these sepals. Funny how some of them are 'naked', though

There is an ancient Latin riddle, when translated, goes something like this:
“Five brothers in one house are we,
All in one little family,
Two have beards and two have none,
And only half a beard has one.
Who are we?”

The answer is the Dog Rose. That sepal characteristic seems to carry on in many canina hybrids as well.

I really like this rose. My wife asked me why I don't get rid of it since we don't cut the flowers. Well, I just like it. It is a delightful coppery-orange-pink blend that blooms in waves. Extremely healthy and more graceful in growth than most minis. Blends and complements all other roses and plantings. I'm keeping it.

I stopped cutting a lot of roses in the garden long ago because I love to see the blooms on the bush as much as I like seeing roses in a vase. I simply love either looking out the window or walking through the garden and seeing all of the different colors, bloom forms and contrasting foliage in the garden. Not every rose needs to be cut for the house, some just make you smile when you see them in bloom.

Smiles,

Lyn

So far I am also impressed by this one- most miniatures here suffer from black spot but this little guy keeps chugging along.

Peace is a beautiful variety- my first rose. But so easily does it get blackspot here...
