Description
SHY ROSE. This rose appeals because it is shy, note the flower has covered it pistil and stamen with dignity. This is a shy rose blossom. The blossom refuses to uncover after several days.
The Rose: This is special. This rose is of Welsh descent, from an old bush my mom had as a little girl and brought to the old family home. From there, a cutting brings this old fashioned bloom to life. I am pleased.
The original plant likely came to the USA in the late 1700's or very early 1800's. It is an old fashion creeper/climber rose with sweet smelling white to pink blossoms.

An interesting rose, don't think I've seen one that covers its centre like this one, it certainly looks delicate with that slight pink blush, I bet the scent is amazing ... if only we could find a way of photographing smells !
