We have our first rose of the season:
Mary Rose
An Heirloom Old English Rose named for Henry the VIII's flagship, "The Mary Rose"
- which was named for his favorite sister, Princess Mary Rose Tudor, Queen of France and Duchess of Suffolk.
Mary Rose Tudor, Duchess of Suffolk and Charles Brandon, the Duke of Suffolk.
A little-known royal, she was every bit as colorful, complex and headstrong as her brother
Although the rose was named for the boat, it fits the girl as well.
