More information
Brownie is a Floribunda by Eugene Berner, bred in 1959 from Lavender Pinoccio × Grey Pearl. Buds are typically light creamy butterscotch with vivid cherry-colored flashes at the petal tips. Once open, the flowers show a characteristic nutty tone, similar to the color of the reverse side of Leonidas petals. The cherry-red edges pale quickly as the flower opens, and a coffee tone becomes dominant. The shrub is compact and requires attentive cultivation, yet it flowers very abundantly throughout summer. In the first year, buds are often removed to promote strong rooting and bush formation. The matte, grey-olive foliage is disease-prone, so preventive measures are commonly applied.
Buds are oval. Flowers are brownish-red with yellow reverses, cup-shaped to flat, large (8–9 cm), double (25–40 petals), fragrant, and borne in clusters of 15–20. Leaves are dark green, leathery. Bushes are vigorous, upright, and dense. Flowering is moderate. Winter hardiness is average. Suitable for group plantings.
