A rose by any other name would smell as sweet;

STERLING ROSE (OR) MASON ROSE

My rose bushes are looking a bit sad this year. I have always loved roses, a love passed to me from my Dad, plus it just happens to be my birthflower. I have always planted roses where ever we have lived, however, they just don't do to well here. I hadn't had any blooms this year until .......

The day that Mason was born, this one shabby looking rose bush had one bloom on it, so I cut it and took it to the hospital for Melanie. Man, it smelled so sweet and pungent. Well, I thought it was so cool that the first and only bloom was on the day my Grandson was born. Then, it happened again, on the day he was one week old, another single bloom on the same rose bush. Now that is amazing! None of the other's have had any blooms yet, and these are the only two blooms on this bush so far. I can't wait to see when it blooms next.

So I have decided to rename this bush to the Sterling Mason Rose.

How special is that?! Maybe Mason will have a green thumb like his grandma & great grandpa. Pretty amazing that he's already making flowers bloom. Very pretty rose too.

The Sterling Mason Rose has a great ring to it. That's pretty neat.
