Abstract Wild Rose in the studio

Wild Rose in the studio · 07:06 PM

My wife picked this rose for my pottery studio in Ireland back in June. We spend two months every summer making and selling pots as well as visiting her family.

The rose and pottery go well together.

Appears to be a rugosa rose. Our wild roses in the U.S. are singles. Iowa State Flower: Wild Prairie Rose The rose pictured is double with some typical rugosa features, like double flowers which have confused centers that have traditional low centered blooms, with tiny numerous thorns. Yours probably has the very traditional rose scent. Usually the veins in rugosa leaves are deeply ingrained. It is likely a hybridized rose from the 1800s. Definitely a keeper.

Thanks for the info. My wife's mother planted it from a cutting off from her brother's place.

It's right beside my potter's wheel. Most potters put their wheel by a window, as did I.

I am not so good a cuttings having success only once, although I occasionally get a piece that includes a root which is sort of a cutting and transplant and it works well. I think you can get a piece of a rugosa with some of the root and restart it easily. Sort of a cutting. I like all kinds of roses. And pottery is such a traditional thing that adds value we can all appreciate.
