I can't tell you how excited am I that I actually bloomed this beauty! I remember the flowers being much larger last year though (in bloom when I bought it)..still very cool!

Beautiful. The cross of R. digbyana is charming.

Hi Dana...it's a beautiful bloom! I bet it is fragrant too!

Dorothy...the other parent is Rl. glauca.

A real Classic!

What a healthy looking new growth and bloom! I wish I had the light to grow this plant.

After it develops the fragrance you will have to describe it for us.

she is very fragrant but the blooms are too young to smell yet. I'm still puzzled that the flowers are smaller than they were last year though...
