I keep trying ... it seems so close. Luv this shot.

Tee - I wish you could.. it smells like heaven. Old rose scent.. love this rose. I don't like pink roses, but I'm exceedingly happy I got this one when Cliff was shutting down EuroDesert. If you know how to root, I'd be happy to send you cuttings later this summer. I can't root anything to save my own life..

I'd love that. My old gardening buddy and I used to go rose rustling around here and I have rooted some of the cuttings from the roses we found. This is one we found and finally ID'd. It's a really old one.

Well, everything's frozen right now, so it'll be a while. I'll treemail you when I start trimming.. probably won't be until like July or August (I have a late growing season here). I have lots of roses, so if there's something you're looking for & I have, I'd be happy to send you cuttings. I just can't root 'em for you. I suck at it. LOLL

Right. Now is not the time. Thanks for the offer. Now if I can just remember when the time does come. Hmmm... there seems to be a pattern here.
