The date on the picture is wrong, it was actually 3-23-09. This is a tea rose called Mrs. B. R. Cant. It makes huge, silvery pink flowers that actually smell like tea. The plant is supposed to get huge here, so let's see if I can get mine to be 8' x 8!' This bush is only a year old and we counted 16 buds on it the other day. Mine is too young for me to have experience with yet, but it's supposed to be very disease resistant and healthy in the Southeast. I needed a place to put all my gardening notes. Thought it would be fun for other people to see my input on various items of interest. I'm particularly fond of roses, fragrants, and flowering vines. Hope you enjoy.

It does get huge but it took mine about 3 years before it really started to take off. It is about 6x8 now.
