Above is a pic of a rose called Angelface.........somewhere, lost in time, someplace I had known someone I called Angelface. I wish you were here with me.
Here is a rose called Melody Parfumee, a purple rose that is sweet smelling & surprisingly long lasting cut. It is spiralling open in a near-perfect hybrid tea form-or grandiflora, I can't recall which.
This is the first flower from the plant, it took nearly 1 whole year to grow to blooming size, which is just under 3 feet. Each of the pics is taken equalling 1 day in the vase. They loaded in reverse order.
