    Beautiful! Lady in Waiting is a lovely flower. I like the color, I like the form, and I like all of the many, many blooms. Mine is in my front yard rose island, where it blooms quite profusely. This rose is quite disease resistant and that is really quite unusual in my humid Long Island Garden.
