24.8.25 Two rose seedlings and many thoughts

Finally, some luck with the rescue of my lavender seedling. It took root well. I can’t believe, it was just a tiny piece of root left after a severe vole attack. Now it is a small round bush, producing buds and fragrant blooms.

Another seedling blooming now is a weird one - it comes from an unusual cross Blue for You x Cl. Schneewittchen. I admit, it was was rather a spontaneous decision to cross those two. This seedling is the only one from that cross to bloom. At least, so far. Nothing special though, considering its odd juvenile bloom, but I think I will wait to see it developed a bit further. Anyway, I like the veining on its petals. And it has a distinct fragrance.
