One of the few roses remaining from the "old days" when I had so many.
This is the climbing rose, Zephirine Drouhin.
It's beautiful, and its fragrance is strong and classic "rose" -
evocative of memories of warm summer evenings sitting on a porch swing
with your grandma with a glass of iced tea, watching the lightning bugs.
Even if you never did anything like that, this rose will make you remember it. ;-)
Note to self: f/5.6 can still be pretty darn shallow! 8-o
This camera's sure larnin' me.
