Just for the record, I have a plant of this rose growing in my garden in Sherman Oaks. The flowers are similar in size to the average of the 19th century roses, about 2 inches in diameter, and the plant is vigorous, if not yet invasive. Jimdelahanty | ||

That's OK Fa, I got the idea. <g> I've got two of this. I need to donate one of them, so it will be somewhere other than here. | ||

"McBride Plot" was found in a Sierra Foothills cemetery. There are 3 McBrides in the plot: Major J.S. McBride (Pennsylvania Volunteers) d. 1908, age 74 his wife Elizabeth died 1897, age 59 Their infant child is buried with no date. There is 1 rose on this plot, I have not as yet upt it up on HelpMeFind, but I'll do that this week. This rose is upright and wiry, and it is remontant. It's disease-free in the foothills, but has some fungal problems (controllable) near the coast. It's got a lovely "Old Rose" fragrance, and it does those beautiful elaborate sepals I like so much. And, yes. It WAS wet when I took these pix.   Jeri Jennings |
