Scentimental Rose

Scentimental rose is one of my favorites for its red and white stripes, and slightly spicy fragrance. This is one of the few blooms in my garden, most of my roses are still buds.

  1. I love this! What a gorgeous print it would make on fabric. I can imagine a dress splashed with this print!

  3. Jeannie,
    I've never thought of that before. I just think it's cool that a rose can be striped. :P

    Nikki,
    It usually does. My roses are a little delayed since I potted them all. Yours are budding too.

  4. Wow! The rose looks beautiful. The red kind of looks like a big brush stroke to me. Amazing- I've never seen this type of rose before whenever I go somewhere.

    ETE,
    It does look like it's painted, huh?
