Double Delight Rose



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it.)

When we got home from the beach, Double Delight was the first rose we saw in our yard. It's in our new flower bed at the end of the driveway, so we saw it as we came down the street to the house. The nice thing about this rose is that it is as fragrant as it is beautiful.

Both red and white! Almost a patriotic rose! I've not seen one like this, so unusual.

Isn't it too early for roses? heard briefly in the news, that your weather has turned bad. I hope that cold snap won't ruin all the flowers.
