Sometimes you have to persevere out there in the rose garden, even in the face of some bad luck. The rose that I had been tracking (with photos) from its infancy didn't live to see a 3rd growing season. So a little over two years ago I had to start all over again, and I chose a seedling that had more promise. I'm happy to report that it is now blooming in its 3rd year, and it should easily make it to adulthood. You too can follow its progress (and learn its identity) -- just click on the tab at the top of the blog, the one labelled "
A rose seedling grows up".
This is how the rose became a rose back in April of 2014 --
