Description
Oh, what glory
To be adored
To be cherished
To be loved
At every stage
At every age
Of our life.
To Be Loved prose by Carol Cavalaris
This artwork of a rose in seven stages of life, from bud, to full bloom, to withered, in shades of red, features a rose called Papa Meilland. I've always found the life of a flower fascinating, as it passes so quickly and makes me appreciate the precious moments of a lifetime. And realize that all stages of life have their unique beauty. This artwork was inspired by the beautiful and healing roses from Brigitte's rose garden in France. Brigitte has over 800 varieties of roses, each grown with passion and a deep love. From Brigitte's Roses Collection of art by Carol Cavalaris, this rose is also available in color variations of purple and mauve.

Dear Carol, congratulation for the 1st place of this Rose Contest. You do deserve it, as you are so talented. I shall tell my rose tomorrow : you know that I talk to all my roses, and love all of them dearly. Even when the have withered, they still have a part of their past glory. Bravo, dear friend :o)

So, Dear Carol, you have captured the seven stages of this beautiful climbing french rose Papa Meilland ® Meisarsar, bred by Meilland in 1963. It is a dark red Tea hybrid, and her fragrance is exceptional. Yes, this rose is very much loved, every day of her short life :o)
Carol Cavalaris replied:
It is such an exquisite rose and some day I hope to visit your garden in person to enjoy her magnificent fragrance.
