More information
A relatively low-growing rose, though it can reach 2 m in hot climates. The flowers are deeply cup-shaped and do not open fully. They are paler on the reverse side, with a creamy centre. The flowers appear in clusters of 3–11 at the ends of long shoots, held high above the leaves. The variety blooms almost without interruption.
Suitable for the front of a border or for a flowerbed, this variety forms a low, branching bush that blooms all summer long. Reminiscent of ‘Heritage’, but shorter in stature. The flowers are deeply cup-shaped, soft pink in the centre, fading to pale pink at the edges. The foliage is reminiscent of tea-hybrid roses. It has a strong myrrh fragrance.
