More information

Reports of high susceptibility to powdery mildew exist; the cultivar grows well in most regions except in very wet climates, where rain causes petal blotching. In arid regions it is cultivated as a hybrid tea. The flowers are goblet-shaped and white. In cold weather the buds show a pink tint, and in hot weather a yellow tint in the center, yet they open pure white. Blooms appear singly or in clusters of up to 4 on long shoots. The plant becomes tall only in hot climates, where it can reach 1.5 m. Foliage is dark, and the shrub carries large thorns.

A classic large-flowered rose. Goblet-shaped buds open to double white flowers of regular form and pure color. The bush is erect and tall, with dense light green foliage, and it is susceptible to powdery mildew; preventive measures are necessary in early summer. Flowering is remontant and very abundant, resembling the old remontant hybrids, although in recent years new cultivars have shorter intervals between flowering and improved disease resistance.

Bush to 70 cm, densely foliated. Flowers are pure white. Susceptible to powdery mildew; should be protected from humidity and
