Cherry Parfait has moderate thorns - about average, I'd say.

Here's the front entryway to our home, photo'd this afternoon. That's the Blush Flower Circus rose bush growing to the right of the porch. The Digitalis and Alliums will give way to the Hemerocallis, which haven't started blooming yet. But they have already gotten huge this year, and will need to be divided this fall. The Lupines have finished their spring bloom, and some Rainbow's End miniature roses are nestled in there, struggling to get their share of daylight. I'll probably need to move those before long. Some miniature Monarda are also buried in there somewhere, but didn't come back very strong after this winter. We're also thinking of removing the two big Alberta Spruces that completely obscure the living room windows. When we first moved into this house nearly 15 years ago, they were much shorter. What do you all think?
