Rose of the Week: Moonstone

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

Moonstone is another of our container roses.  We’ve had it for several years, and we always enjoy its blossoms, which are mostly white but with pink edges.

I wonder if that beauty is fragrant?
The mystery of pink edges on white has my attention.

It looks like it has been dipped in pink paint. Wish I could smell it.
