My favorite rose bush

This is a picture of my favorite rose bush.... It has been in this spot for at least 10 years now and that must be some sort of record for me as it gets so cold here that even if I cover them they sometimes freeze out and I never cover this one. Its in a very sheltered south side of the house though so I imagine that is the secret. It gets such dainty flowers too.

Very beautiful. I had a rose that lived forever. I need to check to see if it is still alive when I go back to my old neighborhood. Paula

I truly enjoyed seeing your rose bush, it and the long spiderlike flowers surrounding it remind of the flowers that we use to have in my front yard, when I was a little girl.

My grandmother grew lots of roses of all species and you're making me remember her. She died in 1955 but my memories of her and her gardens are still with me.
