    Real talk

    Dark in name only. This is a rose for people who find the usual suspects too much, tea-soft, green-edged, with an unexpected currant bite. The patchouli doesn't weigh it down. It waters it.Dark Roses
    For those who think they don't do rose. The currant keeps it from going precious, the vetiver keeps it grounded, the artemisia reminds you this rose has opinions.Elvira's Black Roses
