		Tournament of Roses is one of those must haves.
		As an aside, most lavender/purple roses are flspot magnets, just by virtue of their collar, so this does not surprise me that the lovely Angel Face requires good culture and frequent spraying, but she is certainly worth if it you want her to live up to her name.
