More information
This compact rose, 30–40 cm tall, bears simple reddish-pink flowers with a white center. The blooms are small, simple (4–8 petals), and borne in large inflorescences. It flowers at short intervals throughout the season. The foliage is medium green and dense. It is used for small gardens and container plantings. A notable feature is the simple flowers with a white ‘eye’, resembling those of the musk rose ‘Mozart’. Individual blooms are long-lasting; after discoloration they remain on the plant for about three more weeks. As the flowers fade, they resemble hydrangea blooms in appearance, which is why the Bashful rose is also known as the hydrangea rose. This rose was bred in the Netherlands in 1955 together with six other “dwarfs.” The other six are: Alberich, Degenhard, Eberwein, Bertam, Baldwin, Burkhard. Their Snow White is a Lambert floribunda bred around 1910.
