More information

The buds of this miniature rose are pink, and at the start of flowering the blooms have pink outer petals. As they open further, the flowers turn white and then take on a green hue. This coloration is most pronounced in semi-shade. The blooms are flat, densely wavy, in the old style. They are rosette-shaped with a green button at the centre. Flowers appear in small clusters, usually 3–7 per cluster, and are paired with dark green, glossy foliage. The plant is disease-resistant, produces many blooms, and the bush has a spreading habit.

This miniature rose produces double rosettes with wavy petals about 2.5 cm in diameter, white at first and later soft green. The flowers form in large clusters, so both white and green blooms can occur within the same cluster. It flowers heavily in early summer with repeat waves in summer and autumn. The foliage is dense, dark green. The bush is branched, spreading, reaching 30–60 cm in height and width. Suitable for the front of a border, for edging a path, for planting at the edge of a slope, or in a container. Deadheading encourages repeat flowering. Disease resistance is high.
