Rosa 'Francis Dubreuil' New Pic 12/22/08

Another flower for my grandmother tomorrow.

 

This was taken last month, which shows how behind I am on photos, lol!

 

This is an old rose variety, a tea from 1894. It remains fairly small, and has that heavenly strong old rose fragrance:-) I bought my plant this year when we visited Sequoia Nursery, which has since closed. I had this rose in Oregon (a gift), so was excited when the opportunity arose to get a new one.

 

Note: 12/22/08 I replaced the photo I put up originally. I kept looking at the 1st one, and thought it was too soft. I went back into the photos for that day, and discovered this one that I'd taken a little later, which is much better! I forgot I had this little visitor, too:-)
