Rose of the week...

Osiana is the rose of the week. 

Kind of feels like a blast from the past! Used to be THE peach rose, but haven't seen it around much these past few years.  It is a beautiful soft peach color, large head, nice shape.  We have seen a lot of peach this wedding season, and this rose is a lovely choice for bouquets.
