A rose by any other name
Would still have thorns and try to prick you
But it would also be as beautiful and smell as sweet.
Unfortunately, our Joseph’s Coat rose died over the hard winter we just experienced. There, however, remain strong and healthy.
Those are lovely, though I’m sorry one’s died for the season already.
As for the, ‘A rose by any other name…’ I cannot tell you how many times I have heard that very phrase in life. I guess it’s a name thing. 😉 :laff:
The rose quotation comes from William Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet. That’s why you’ve heard it so often. Oh, and it is a name thing. The passage begins, “What in a name? A rose by any other name would . . .” :tiphat:
We have the book. :cloud9:
Good. :up:
All stunning. The first one is breathtaking. What is that cultivar?
Sorry, we’ve forgotten its name. I can tell you that it is a dwarf.
