Pope John Paul II Rose

We are planningour garden adventures already. We've got seeds for our "Bunny Garden" and we searched for a few plants at the garden center yesterday. We were excited to see that Jackson and Perkins has a new Hybrid Tea Rose named after Pope John Paull II.

A percentage of the purchase price goes to benefit a cuase close to John Paul II's heart. The link below will bring you to a picture of the rose. It was cheaper at the garden center than it is to purchase on-line.

John Paul II Rose Every Catholic family needs this in their garden! The J&P site says that this rose is growing in the Vatican's private garden.

Another favorite of mine is Our Lady of Guadalupe-- the purchase of this rose alos raises money for a cause. I had one at my last house and loved the pink roses so much that we planted one here. You can also see OLOG rose on their website.
