Vincent and Bee

At Home in Sugar Land Texas

Another of my Roses is Vincent Godsiff, one of the Bermuda Mystery Roses.
Bermuda mystery roses have an interesting history. These roses have been grown in Bermuda for at least a century
and are thought to be old garden roses brought to the island by European settlers. Their true names are unknown,
so they have traditionally been named after the owners of the gardens in which they were found.
As a group, they tend to be nematode and disease-resistant, as well as tolerant of hot and humid conditions.
