Very pretty Florence!

I've always wanted RDV... it's very near the top of my wish list... which seems to have no bottom. ;o)

Thanks Rob---I was walking through Home Depot last year with my DH and RdesV jumped right in my cart LOL----I really didn't expect much but it is blooming this year.
the canes are quite lax but I've seen that in other photos of RdesV

I really like your 'Reine des Violettes', Florence.
I've found this rose to be surprisingly tough.
I've alway liked my RdV, and I still do.

Don't you love it? Mine is young too after losing a nice old one.
