A nice grouping of Peace Roses | Thanks to Debbie for this one |
July
first of 2006 I ordered two rugosa roses (Rosa Rugosa) from Heirloom
Roses up in Oregon. They were supposed to arrive
ten days
later and never showed up. September seventh, I was in the post office picking up a couple books I ordered and the post master came out with a box from Heirloom Roses that was post marked July seventh. They mixed up the shipping address with the billing address. I naturally expected to see some long dead plants but one actually had a pink stem and a couple yellow leaves. This is the rose several days later, getting some water and sun. Survives a month in a box with no light and no water - Now that's my kind of rose! |
