I'm really kicking myself for not entering this in the show today. So I'll just share it with you guys instead. My camera refused to get the red right this time. It really isn't pink at all. Lol.

Love this rose...it is such a work horse in my garden. Your pictures are very nice. BIG blooms that hold forever on the bush. Lesley

It's a powerhouse for sure! I ended up with close to ten HUGE (all about the size of this one), practically perfect roses this flush. And if that wasn't enough, it's pushing up it's biggest basal yet at an almost alarming rate of speed.
I've always loved Veteran, but it was never really one of my favorite roses.I think I may have been a bit hasty in my decision...;0)

Lovely bloom. I can never see enough of it.
My camera has problem with reds too.

So glad you posted it for our enjoyment.

Wow nice form! I kick myself every time I see someone post a pic of this one. I had this rose as a test rose way back in the late 90s and gave it away because I didn't have much room and red is not my favorite color. Now I wish I hadn't given it away. Oh sure, I could buy a new one, but I somehow just can't seem to do it. It's always nice to see pics of other people's blooms tho.
