Margaret Merril Full Standard


Margaret Merril   Full Standard

This is the rose standard that Harry bought me for my birthday in March. A very healthy Rose with coppery leaves which turn a glossy dark green as they mature. This is the second flush of blooms, very beautiful but they are supposed to be White, wonder if they have mixed up the labels?

Thanks all, despite not being quite what I expected, I do love it and the inner petals are actually changing to a much paler colour now ;0)
