 I usually list photos in the orchid gallery but just could not resist showing this one. I cut it yesterday because of rain. I think it's size is what makes it so outstanding to me but I also like it's beautiful color. It is the size of a salad plate, 7" in diameter. It has a nice sweet smell. |

| Seven inches!!!! The bush probably doesn't throw too many roses, because so much energy goes into each bloom????? I love the colors!!! Carol |

| The bush was planted in the spring and it has two more buds, one to a stem. I was wondering if I should have let such a big rose develop. The other two buds won't make it because it is supposed to be 27 degrees tonight and 24 the next. |

| Don't know how cold sensitive your rose will turn out to be, but usually I just let nature decide whether or not the buds will survive. On the other hand, if the buds are far enough along (have color and nearly ready to open), I might cut one or both and bring inside for a last lovely bouquet. Kate |
