More information
This rose has blooms with bright apricot centers, paling toward the edges to pale cream. The distinctive feature is the camellia-like form: petals are dense, waxy, and have a tea rose texture. The shrub bears slightly arching shoots, drooping flowers, and glossy foliage. Strong tea rose fragrance. The variety shows disease resistance. Blooms last well when cut.
Pegasus produces large, densely waved blooms in apricot. Petals fade to ivory or cream at the margins and curl outward, so the fully open bloom forms a mass of small wavy central petals with larger outer petals. Flowers appear singly or in small clusters, first at the ends of new shoots and then along their entire length. The bush is densely clothed and fountain-like, and it requires support. Foliage is large, dark, glossy, and disease-resistant. Few thorns; the shrub is very dense. Blooms hold well when cut.
