Thrilled with new rose

As a new homesteader with a developing interest in herbal remedies and homemade health and beauty care, I was looking for the perfect rose to include in my ever-growing plant collection. Apothecary Rose fit the bill due to its abundance of rose hips. In fact, I found it is the same plant monks used to use for their creations in times gone by. I shopped far and wide to find a good price. I found it with Charsaw Farms! Once the plant arrived, I was doubly thrilled. It was packed perfectly and was extremely healthy. I will most definitely be ordering from these folks again. And, not only for roses.
