Peace rose from our gardens
The Peace rose is one of my favorite flowers of all time. No matter where I have moved - from Dallas to Atlanta to Santa Cruz to San Jose and finally to where I have retired in Lubbock, Texas, I have grown Peace roses in my gardens. This rose is perhaps the best known rose in all of the world, its history being intimately connected to the end of World War II. It symbolizes in its beauty and its name the hope of people everywhere for peace.
