Definately a double! I expected it to be out this morning, but I guess the cooler temperatures are slowing things down a bit.

Some more buds have started to 'assume the position'

I love the leaves on this plant, they are very 'rough' textured, and slightly shiney (even when they are not wet)

Thank you all for your encouragement! I had a very bad summer for brugs this year. Not only the first bloom ever on this seedling, but my first bloom of the season, very disappointing after non stop blooming from July to frost last year!

Great job Frances! Please post a pix when it's fully opened.

not a double after all! looks like a winner! and smells very like Tea Roses.
