Thank you for demonstrating "the official rose of Los Angeles" can be beautiful in the right place, at the right time. I'm kidding about it being our official rose. You just see it everywhere because of bad cultural practices. It can be splendid where it's suited. Thanks!

I think of 'Dr. Huey' as being the most common rose in New England. Drive through the countryside in late June and you will see it in almost every yard where a different rose once bloomed.

Huey is probably the most common rose in the United States. When you consider how many millions have been sent out as root stock over the past seventy plus years, how many roses have either been transplanted or died and how tenacious it is from the smallest piece of root left in the soil, there must be many millions. You spot it all over Los Angeles and its suburbs every spring, full of flowers and mildew, then rust later in the year. When it's beautiful, it IS beautiful!
