Viru had been watching this seedling of 2010 which he was certain was a Rosa gigantea cross, perhaps with a Tea rose, for many years . He liked the way it grew, and the blooms, which were full and rounded, which reminded him of a chubby soft baby. But as he was uncertain of the parentage, the label having been lost, he was reluctant to release it though he had given it a name - Full Circle. Now I feel I should have this seedling recorded so that his hybridising work does not go without remembrance.
