Another of my roses named BUTTER CREAM. This one was introduced in 2002 by Robert Martin as a Mini-flora. That means that it is a miniature rose with a bloom size of about 2 inches. A perfectly formed exhibition rose that grows to about 30 inches. It seemed that everyone who saw the rose would say..."it looks like it was carved out of butter". I staged a test to see...and it came pretty close!

Thanks for viewing and I wish you all a really nice week!
