    Pretty good size flower. Thanks!

    BTW, I just looked it up on Lynne O's site for alt. info. Based on the photos, yours looks more like the R. pandurata.
    No, I am not saying yours is mislabeled for sure.

    Tom, I looked in Luer's book and I think you're right. The plant size fits it too. This one was identified by Eric Christenson some years ago when he was here; there may have been quite a bit of wine involved. I'll try to look closely at a flower tomorrow.

    Really nice plant and photo. Those things are not easy to photograph!
