So here's some rioting redness for y'all.
Two days earlier it was a shy bud like this:
Sweet dreams.

Good grief! There's a riot going on here - a riot of flowers and colors. I refer to earlier posts, too.
God knows I sometimes feel like rioting, Mimi, and sometimes I am simply riotous. You, my dear, are often a laugh riot. Should the authorities be warned about us?
Yes. About the both of you!
Love your rose Paul.
And also with you, Margaret.
Rioting is a good word, indeed. For the rose, yes.
For you and Grandmère Mimi, definitely!
what is the variety, Paul? (I am about to get seriously involved with Canadian Hardy i.e. sub-zero roses...they get lovelier and lovelier...hooray for agricultural experimental stations, I say!)
Alas, Crimson Rambler, I don't know. That tag must have detached when I planted this rose and it has remained a mystery. Unlike the crimson of the Blaze rose, this one is definitely scarlet, an orange-tint to the intense red. It is one of the new ones I planted this spring. I do know that the roses appear singly on long stems. Alas, I do not even understand rose nomenclature and categories. I just plant them and enjoy them.
