Your picture examplifies why I grow Hybrid Teas. So very pretty.....Maryl

Seems like almost everyone like this rose. I had to grow this rose despite my preference for highly scented roses. It is such a beauty. A deep cupshaped roses with so many petals and it has really good disease resitance.The bud are fat and green and is so good for cutting. It is also interesting to hear peoples different experiences about growing this wonderful rose. Life is certainly not allways a bed of roses ...but roses makes life better. And yes Jackie many lie cupshaped roses ever though each rose has its own charm. And Susan I have nothing against Martha Stewart ( I carry an extra suitcase to America each time and have bought many of her better living stuff). And Bethsmom what a beuatiful picture of the rose. And Joe thanks for reminding me about Pierre De Ronsard! Seems he was a hopeless romantic like me.

Wow, that is truly breathtaking! What talent you've got. I'd pay good money to have that picture in my living room! Jeff
