Gemini Rose



(This picture can be enlarged by clicking on it. Clicking a second time will make it full-sized.)

Gemini is one of the first roses we planted in our front yard. It's a bicolor -- I guess that's how it got its name -- of delicate pink and white. It also has a nice fragrance. We're always happy to see it in bloom.

I am truly amazed how you remember the names of all these roses.You have such a wonderful variety. I have the rugged thick stemmed roses with huge prickles resembling the wild rose.They have a lovely fragrance. I love them because they bush out and act as a very good fence and they bloom practically all the time for years. But ask me the name and I can't remember. I was always bad with names and don't ask me to say the alphabet backwards cause I can't do that either lol
