NY Roses End of October

[Smart Red]

Never been on an airplane (as an adult) and I weed right nicely, too. Dad got brother and I seats on a tiny (crop duster-type) plane that flew a short route near and around the airport and on a helicopter that did the same.

What's this? Are we bidding for the opportunity to weed NYboys garden for free? Sounds like a racket....
Since Red is closer and should have the opportunity to fly in a jet as an adult, I relinquish my offer in her favor.

My MIL has a couple like yours and calls them Fairy Roses, not the actual name though.

No bids! I dislike weeding perennials! Y'all understand why I'm so content growing annuals and having bare ground 6 months outta the year?

I also dislike jet travel. I find the entire experience painful. But, how are ya gonna get anywhere?

'Bout to tell DW, enuf of this hangin' around when the weather is nice. Flying off solo because you are happy with that. I'm going nomad!

Well, maybe that is the name then. (Never know with my MIL, she is so funny about mispronouncing and renaming things, lol.) That looks just like hers.

I once raised a series of Fairy roses. Just called them by color. I figured Fairy described the size rather than the rose name.

I have a polyantha "The Fairy". It's small, with thumb sized blooms.
