If you're talking about the rose in the foreground to her right, that's 'David Thompson'.ProfessorRoushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17827625019371233145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2891478286629018612.post-67063885552132247992017-08-02T12:51:16.048-05:002017-08-02T12:51:16.048-05:00What is that pretty dark purple bush behind her?

...no no no. no. not my weakness - i cannot look. <br /><br />Roses are my stable boy (akin to your peasant milkmaid) *blush* but we are still rehabbing the land due to the fire that came over our place last summer. But yet ~<br /><br />I have recently found a dealer (shhhh) in bareroot stock of heirloom roses http://www.rosesofyesterday.com/bareroot.html and my fav is on her list - Blanc Double De Courbet, a truly prolific extremely fragrant hardy white blossomed rugosa that survived zone 3 wisconsin winters year after year with no covering. And if i took the time (which I would!) to deadhead every 2 weeks, it would bloom all summer long until i would finally let it rest and make the largest hips for the birds to come in and eat during the winter...and now, now this -<br /><br />your blog of your favorite...but i must plan trees this year, only trees...for right now... ;)Janice Grinyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14363741660626407979noreply@blogger.com
