Rosa Mundi 1/2 Pint Mug –

Rosa Mundi is a classic old rose thats been admired for centuries. Its as generous in its display of rose-pink striped petals as it is in its profusion of orange-red hips: these are valuable food for garden birds such as the long tailed tit featured on this Rosa Mundi 1/2 Pint Mug. This rose therefore easily earns its place on a floral mug in our Birds In The Garden collection. Equally impressive is where the name Rosa Mundi comes from: the Latin epitaph for Henry IIs mistress refers to her as a rose of the world, not a pure rose. Hows that for a fact to stun the family with at breakfast time when sipping tea from your rose mug?
