You must accept the thorns which it bears
If you enjoy the fragrance of a rose, you must accept the thorns which it bears.
Isaac Hayes
I once had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: no good in a bed, but fine up against a wall.

This is Tornionlaaksonruusu - Rosa majalis
'Tornedal' (tornedalsros) in my garden. It's starting to open up the buds. First rose to bloom in my backyard.
