Rosa Macrexy, known as Sexy Rexy. A floribunda bred by Sam McGredy in New Zealand in the 1980's it was named after a winegrower friend of his, Rex Hotchkin. It was said Rex was 'tickled pink' by the honour. It is extremely popular in New Zealand gardens, having a very long flowering season. This is Rexy in my garden in mid afternoon sunshine. . .

Very nice shot Lyn and some great information to go with it. I grow this rose here in my rosebeds. An almost non-stop bloomer here. Beautiful rose and a beautiful shot of her.

Great presentation Lyn. The color is so vibrant and it seems so alive. The narrative was informative and highly entertaining. A great post.

You have proven her popularity with this image. Who would not want to have this lovely lady growing in their own yard? So beautifully photographed and presented, Eve.

Looks like pink pom poms being waved by a cheerleader. They're so soft and crinkly and, well, pink.....
