White Astrid Rose

This is my name for this white rose, which I think is a recently bred one. My dearest gardening friend Astrid sent it out here for a peaceful retirement.

This rose is on its own in a bed of older shrubs, and the dark foliage and beautifully formed flowers are stunning. It is standing up in a bed of green Iris Japonica.

Unknown White Rose

Finally in 2009 I cleared a lot of tree and shrub branches from above this rose. With more light and fresh air the results this summer have been spectacular. The flowers look a lot like Margaret Merril, though they appear to be a little smaller in size. Who knows what this rose is?
