Velvet Rose
I don't know for sure if Velvet Rose is the correct name for this particular variety or not and I am not sure if it is an actual Heirloom species. But they grew in a patch behind my great grandmother's house. They survived a transplanting to my grandmother's home and a second transplanting to the homestead here; a journey that spanned over 100 years and several hundred miles. The name followed them, changing only sightly through the years from Grandma's Velvet Rose to Great Grandma's Old Fashioned Velvet Rose.
