Hi, My Grandmother's rose bush (she referred to as Seven Sisters) started from a little stem I took from the old Home place 40 years after her death, It has been in several places in my yard and would take over the area, it was cut back, dug up, replanted, dug up again, again it came back, then dug up again and left lying in a planter for 3 summers with only a little dirt (my excuse for not taking care of it was, I was busy working and did not have the time.) Well I found and took the time to plant the Rose
