Don't judge a book...or rose... By its cover...or early blooms

 Just like a cover to a book doesn't always say how good or bad it is going to be, the first bloom of a young rose isn't always going to be the same as when the plant gets older. This William Morris is a young plant, and I am not expecting the future blooms to look the same. (Though it would be cool)
