I've devoted quite a bit of "ink" in this blog to 'Red Galaxy', a rose that I grew from seed and to which I gave a descriptive name. In turn, I grew another rose (unnamed) from seed that I obtained from 'Red Galaxy'. The two roses are now growing side-by-side in my backyard rose bed. Here they are in photos that I took today -- unnamed seedling on the left, and 'Red Galaxy' on the right. Note the state-of-the-art weather station in the foreground.

Close-up photos of respective blooms are shown below.
Important note: I've been tracking the unnamed seedling from its "birth" in a photo documentary that you can see just by clicking on the TAB at the top of this blog, the one labeled "
A rose seedling grows up".
