RE: found rose

"Bessie DuVaul" what a wonderful name.
Even nicer on a rose, good choice Michelle.
She would be so pleased.    :-)

Naming  "found" roses can be so helpful. 
After collecting almost a dozen I would be
lost without the "found names".  They also
help me remember who, what, where and 
when these roses came to me.
