Here in SoCal, we don't get much of that "changing foliage" effect. It's one of the things we really enjoyed, on our recent trip to Texas and back. Jeri | ||

here, in New Jersey (7b), it has reached about 8'. If the winter is very cold there will be some dieback | ||

Happy Turkey Day to all! Wish I could see and smell Crenshaw Musk today. Instead, Carolyn Sanders, Marji and I are headed up to the Belovich garden...actually, I should have said kitchen! Sue | ||

Stephen, I wonder if it was blooming when I came to your garden?? I will look at my photo's. Thanks for the history. Combined Rose List say's 1540. Wow, that's old. | ||

it's also known as the Double Musk = Bremo Musk = R. moschata plena. Mine came from the compost heap of Brookville Roses in Long Island. The name comes from the plot that John and Marie Butler found in on in Hollywood Cemetery, Richmond VA | ||

Stephen, does this rose have another name?? I tried looking it up on HMF and also in the Combined Rose List. No luck. I bet this came from Cranford Rose Garden?? Do you have any pictures of this rare rose and why is it not listed somewhere?? | ||
