Does anyone here love Roses? These are from my old farm. 'Morden Blush.' The entire 'Morden' series is very cold-hardy and super easy to care for. Good for cutting and blooms from Spring until first frost. Pretty much self-cleaning which means the petals drop off so you don't have to constantly deadhead to get more blooms. Highly recommended!

Those roses are beautiful! I have 4 roses all from the house I grew up in Chicago. So 70 years plus a few. I mean that’s how old the mother plants are. I don’t know the name of one very fragrant, dark pink big bush flowers not so big. One is a rosa rugosa. At one point it was as big as a VW beetle but I have it a severe pruning last year. Another is a climber dark pink seven sisters and the last was my Dad’s favorite Amelia Damask a very old very very fragrant pink with most wicked big thorns ever. The smell is amazing. Classic.
