Very beautiful! Everytime I check to see if it is in stock, no luck... Hopefully within tge next year I will get lucky:) Thank you for sharing you images!

Gorgeous, Jeri, both the rose and your photo.

As much as I admire Viru's roses, and as much as I zone push, I'm skeered to attempt any rose with that much R. gigantea blood. Otherwise, you'd definitely be enabling me like you have with so many other roses, lol.

Beautiful, Jeri.

In due time, it will begin to filter out, but you know, it's like some of Paul Barden's best roses. There just aren't enough sources.

I love Viru's roses. Jeri, your photos show why. I know that I teeter on the brink of not being able to grow them at all, but I feel like I have to try. I have had his Faith Whittlesey for maybe 4 yrs. It's the most beautiful white rose I've ever grown. Although it has some gigantea ancestry, it also has hybrid multiflora and noisette which do very well for me. First year it died to the ground after an average winter/spring. It's vigorous and healthy (never blackspots) enough to come back and bloom, no problem. Each year after, it's done a little better till this year when it had no dieback. Granted, it was a mild winter but we did have a late frost. Unfortunately, the voles got it. I have it potted up and fingers crossed. I'll replace it if I lose it. John, if you like white teas, this one might be worth a try in the right spot.
