I brought this rose home from Vintage Gardens...the end of May 2004. I was very excited when the first bloom began to open and even more excited when the second bud started opening! I took pictures of the second bloom from every possible angle because it was so wonderful to watch the changes in the flower and the look from different angles. The blooms are small, I measured them but misplaced the paper with the number of inches...I think that it was a little less than 3 inches across when open. I guess that you can tell that I love this rose! She is a found rose...
