I keep adding roses thinking my garden will some day look like Phillips at 'Dirt Therapy' (http://phillipoliver.blogspot.com/) Or Mashas at 'A Rose is a Rose... '(http://rosomanes.blogspot.com/). Well a person has to dream big, right? I'm starting to think roses just don't grow like that here, but I will keep trying.Fawnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07374263777588721132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623042538529631254.post-87161793845379619822011-04-16T22:00:03.233-07:002011-04-16T22:00:03.233-07:00Fawne - That red is so vivid.

Doesn't it figure - I get one to grow, then the bunnies take it from 18" tall down to 3" this past winter!! (Fortunately, it's greened up a lot in a short time this Spring.)Shyrlenehttp://thebunniesbuffet.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623042538529631254.post-25303310122632189102011-04-16T07:15:52.351-07:002011-04-16T07:15:52.351-07:00Thanks Betsy, I love the last picture too, if you ...Thanks Betsy, I love the last picture too, if you look close you can see the sun glinting off of the spider web string.<br /><br />Phillip, I think I will be looking for more miniatures too since I have a smaller in town lot. Thanks for stopping by.<br /><br />Masha, thanks for the information on miniatures. I will be researching more before I buy next time but I still love this little rose.<br /><br />Thanks Diane, I appreciate the comment.Fawnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07374263777588721132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623042538529631254.post-51286279778837996002011-04-15T14:45:32.552-07:002011-04-15T14:45:32.552-07:00What a stunning shade of red!

Usually, the word "miniature" refers to the size of the blooms, not the bush - some miniature roses can be huge! You made a good purchase, your rose looks cheerful and happy with lots of blooms.Mashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15996950576326655813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5623042538529631254.post-44818680865213655602011-04-15T06:40:06.291-07:002011-04-15T06:40:06.291-07:00I need to get more miniatures.
