Bought it early this month. Two plants. Put them in a shallowish pot. When I was young, we had it in the garden and my elders used to call it 'Table Rose'.

Ya, I too loved it. I saw the same plant in the 3 nurseries I visited. There was also the orange one. I did not buy. In my childhood, the plant we had had a more 'bushy' set of petals and a darker pink. I hope the plant blooms in profusion which is my desire.

I take a lot of pics of these little flowers. In our climate they are a non stop summer bloomer. One of the few that takes our heat!
Here is a macros shot of an orange one
