These are roses in my mom's garden. They are so fragrant and have the most perfect blossoms. When they are in bloom I always take some home with me.
Suburban house flower garden.
Flavors depend on type, color, and soil conditions. Flavor reminiscent of strawberries and green apples. Sweet, with subtle undertones ranging from fruit to mint to spice. All roses are edible, with the flavor being more pronounced in the darker varieties. In miniature varieties can garnish ice cream and desserts, or larger petals can be sprinkled on desserts or salads. Freeze them in ice cubes and float them in punches also. Petals used in syrups, jellies, perfumed butters and sweet spreads. NOTE: Be sure to remove the bitter white portion of the petals.

That is amazing Apple--such longevity! These are my favorite roses in my mom's garden.
This is an excellent plant! Very hardy, very easy to maintain. I have some in my garden that are actually from a bush that my grandmother has that her mother started over 80 years ago. Great plant!
Thank you Surekha!
Pretty pink roses!
