Souvenir de la malmaison rose
Souvenir is a happy rose these days.
She’s putting out these lovely clusters of quartered roses. I love it. Oh and they smell so lovely. She’s a small rose bush, but she’s fairly hardy for me during the long cold winters.
Like the bug hanging out too?

Oh, very lovely, how dense it is! Amazing… And the bug looks like it’s standing out from the pic!

Very pretty. I like the color of pink they are! Nice! And the bug is always an added bonus! I have bugs in mine too!
Happy Sunday!

Those roses remind me of peonies in the way that they are so full. Really beautiful and I love that pale pink!

I agree - they look a bit like peonies. These pics are recent? You must be the master green thumb.
