Some of them were past but a few others were still in bud, so there&#8217;s no way to see them all on a single visit. We did see a good selection though, and I was happy. This rose, called Dupontii or the snow-bush rose is not quite a species but is a hybrid of <em>Rosa moschata<\/em>, the musk rose, bred by Andr\u00e9 Du Pont in 1817. It&#8217;s a lovely, slightly pink flower and one that I&#8217;d love to grow. Understand that this rose only blooms once in the spring, though, so don&#8217;t expect a summer full of flowers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cathy and I went to the National Arboretum after church today.
