SOOC Sunday - Crocus Rose














 Crocus Rose is a repeat flowering, shrub rose with deep green leaves and slightly arching stems. It has robust, free flowering, full blooms of soft-apricot flowers produced in large clusters in summer. It has an old rose fragrance.  Tulsa has had a few light frosts but not a hard freeze.  Heavy rain and strong winds have blown most of the leaves from, our trees but  many of the roses are still blooming in the Municipal Rose Garden  We have had a very mild Autumn and it is almost December.  We are about 2 weeks behind our usual weather.  We had a very nice Thanksgiving day with lots of family around a table full of turkey with the traditional goodies.  The left overs are the best part.  We hope your holiday was happy.

Very nice rose. I do not see this one growing too much here in Alabama. I never thought I could grow a white rose, but have had good luck with a few floribunda varieties. Glad you had a great Thanksgiving. Blessings!
