Old-Time Red Rose

This beautiful red rose has lived at my late mother's house for at least forty years.  It grows on a small bush on rather small stems.  Some one gave it to her many years ago.


My husband caught this beautiful blossom on a rainy day.  The bush bears perhaps half a dozen blossoms at a time.

I plan to try to root some cuttings this summer from the pair of these roses I have.
