No - it's not another one of my good weeds . . . this one was left in the lobby in late spring. I put it on the picnic table and it went bald. Now, it's getting leaves again.

It looks like a miniature rose.

Alan, I hope you're right . . . if so, that will be 4 rose plants I have now. I bought a mini-rose bush in the early spring and am growing it in a big pot. It has doubled in size - haven't seen any roses on it though. There are buds.

And there's a 'regular' rose bush - it's just starting to come around and is getting good healthy looking leaves. The roses will be pink when they come.

And there's a small rose plant someone left for me - with a yellow spent rose on it. I'm hoping that will come to something.

Well, this plant pictured here is not much bigger but the leaves are coming in nicely - we'll keep an eye on it and see what it does.

Alan, you were so absolutely right!

Here's the plant now that it's grown some - I can see it is indeed a mini-rose . . .

Now, all I need is some roses!

Mini roses are so pretty

Well, I just put this thing in the ground - we'll see what it does in spring. It's not much of a plant, really - kinda' spindly, but it might perk up after a good winter's rest.

Thanks all for your feedback on this.
