I clipped the first suitable bud from one of the hybrid
rosebushes. It is one of Kaelyn’s. The red center emerged much darker than I
expected, nearly purple. It blends more with the black of the rest of the
petals. I had hoped for a bit more contrast but am not discouraged. There are
other buds still emerging and I will have time during the season to tend and experiment
with them for a brighter crimson.
My beloved said that it was lovely and an “amazing
beginning.” But I am particular and fastidious on this because it is a tribute.
