This Gallica rose, which is almost thornless, has, as befits a cleric, rich velvety purple flowers which are scented and slightly shabby.

Its also has a companion that seems to be lagging. A beautiful flower. Its slightly droopy appearance makes me think of it as a floral version of Buster.

Cardinal de Richlieu? How interesting. Where do they get the names for these roses? Or do you name them yourself? In any case, cool postwork and composition in this one, A.
