More information
Much of the description of Harlow Carr applies to this rose. However, Rosemoor’s flowers are smaller, not exceeding 5cm. Each bloom resembles a miniature antique rose. The colouring is soft pink, brighter at first, gradually becoming paler. The flowers appear in small to large clusters, but the variety is not like spray roses, as the blooms open one at a time and each flower is shown individually. The fragrance has been described as “a rose oil scent with hints of apple, cucumber and violet leaves.” The bush forms a small- to medium-sized, rounded shrub, studded with small flowers down to the ground, creating an effect reminiscent of sakura in bloom. It is almost completely disease resistant.
A small rose, flowering with well-formed small rosettes reminiscent of the old De Meaux centifolia rose. The colour is soft pink, brighter in the centre and paler at the edges. With age the flower pales and a green button appears in the centre. The bush is upright but branched and flowers very freely and for a prolonged period. Suitable for the front of a border or for more formal plantings where its form and fragrance can be appreciated.
