I was just introduced to a fantastic rose that you should try. The “Peggy Martin Rose” was one of the few plants surviving 20 feet of salt water over the garden of Mrs. Peggy Martin, Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, after the flooding of Hurricane Katrina in late August, 2005.

It is now on the market in the United States and has become a symbol among gardeners and rose lovers of a tenacious plant associated with a spirit of renewal and re-growth in the aftermath of a natural disaster.
