More information

This variety produces blooms typical of English roses. It exhibits high disease resistance and is reported to be rarely affected; such performance is noted for only a small number of varieties. The blooms are medium to large, with delicate, almost silky petals. The color is a soft pink, with an old-fashioned character. The petals carry a fruity scent, while the flower’s center contributes a clove note. The bush is vigorous, produces many shoots from the base, and quickly reaches a substantial size. It can be trained on a support and grown as a climbing rose. The foliage is abundant, dark green, and glossy.
