Well, unfortunate unless you think that bicolor look is kind of cool, like I do! Rosa moyesii does have beautiful hips.

Yes there is. A fabulous nursery under a blue sky that you can drive to in under 2 hours.

Are you going to break it off eventually and pot it up? I don't like 'Jade Frost' either! A couple of years ago I dug up a couple intending to pot them up and give them away at one of the swaps, and then I ended up being so lazy, I just let them die. Isn't that awful of me? I hope they still have those whale's tongue Agaves next month.Alisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16323262555906240701noreply@blogger.com
