Red Rose 2
The second photo with the ruler shows the rose is about 14 cm across.
However, the most wonderful thing about this giant rose, apart from its size, is the gorgeous scent, detected from far away.
The color of this rose is just magical!

I’m thinking that’s about 5.5 inches in my world. That is majestic. Is there anything that doesn’t grow where you are?

A Blue Ribbon winner if I ever saw one! Magnificent! It seems that anything you plant works so hard at flourishing just to please you Sci. Your green thumb deserves a Blue Ribbon too!
I’m not sure, but isn’t there a solution you can dip the rose in to preserve it?

I don’t know about preserving the rose – I tend to leave it on the rose bush so I can enjoy the scent when I go outside. 🙂
