    what roses bear a name which is in contrast with their appearance?

    For example, this "Jude the Obscure" isn't it a bit hard of a name for this beautiful rose?

    I have one of those.

    I like the name - it's evokes visions of romantic tragedy (from Thomas Hardy's novel of the same name) :)
