Moonstone Rose

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

Moonstone is one of our newer roses, but with its cream color with pink edges it has become a favorite.  This rose is one of the roses in containers along our driveway.

Now that is a gorgeous rose. So delicate looking. Does it have a fragrance? MB

Forgot to add---We bought a species Rhododendron in the Spring. It's name is Moonstone just like the Rose. MB

This one looks so lush, and it also reminds me of velvet.

This rose is very unique and pretty to me. In my country we hardly have any white or beige roses. They have to be air flown from other countries. When will you ever bring Betsy to visit Malaysia?

What a pretty and unusual color combo. How in the world do you remember all the names? Do you label them?

Carletta said...

So dainty with the blush pink of the edges!
Lovely!
I think I'll try containers for a couple and see if I can have some half as gorgeous as yours. :)
