Flowers’, I just saw this question.I’m going to think on the answer for a bit. I will get back with you today. Not totally sure my answer will make any since but I’ll try.

Thank you flowers. I am glad we both did not have to face the horrible trouble that could have been.


I looked up Occhi di Fata. What a splendid rose. One reason I am holding back from getting it is because it is described as not so fragrant. (Is that true?) But if I have ever have space like yours I certainly will grow it.😁😁


OT: I listened to the Italian song Occhi di Fata sung by Pavarotti. It was the usual grand, tragic, Italian Aria and a good listen.

Thanks, Katy, for the reminder. I listened to it a few times just now, too. So lovely.

It is a very pretty rose if you like singles. I detect no fragrance at all. I believe she is prettier in person than in photos because you see how the color changes every day. She is very vigorous and hasn't stopped blooming all spring and summer. Mustbnuts often talked about how much she loves hers. I ordered Liola at the same time, but she didn't make it through winter in the garage. I will probably try her again. I think she's even prettier than Occhi.
