Whatever happened to Mary Queen of Scots
I have been out looking at the roses growing along my fenceline. There is no fence, and I just mow them to keep them in place.
The Chestnut Rose is there, flowering its little heart out:
This is a spiny little bush, with an odd, three-part hairy/furry bud.
And Mary Queen of Scots was supposed to be beside her. But she is not there. Surely I wouldn't have totally mown her to death would I? In mistake for a bit more of the out-of-control Jamieson rose.
Toyota!
That cutting came from a wonderful old historic church in another state. And I loved her dearly.
Here, although it is no compensation, is another view do the Apothecary's Rose:
I must move some of this to the fenceline, too. It is currently only in a bed.

Oh poor Mary Queen of Scots - fancy being beheaded twice. You would think that once was enough.
