A thing of beauty.....



A photo of the rosebush that I  moved from southern Iowa to our home.  It has been in the ground over a week now and the weather has held out good to give it a chance to root.  I will cover with leaves soon and hope to see it bloom next year.  A thing of beauty I share with you today.

Hi Larry, Glad you got it in the ground! If the weather holds for another week you should be home free and blooming great next summer! The leaves will help to keep the ground warmer. It is a beautiful rose:)
