More information

This rose can be mistaken for rugosa; the affinity is evident, yet there are notable differences. The foliage is dark green above and paler beneath, tidy, more pointed and smoother than in rugosa. The spines are long, slender, pale green. The bush is tall, branched, and upright. The flowers are large, semi-marginal, produced in small, dense clusters across the bush. Their color is rich pink with a purple tinge, later fading to lilac-pink, with contrasting golden stamens. The fragrance is light, classic pink, with notes of water lettuce and cucumber, and the stamens smell of cloves. A hardy rose that grows well even in poor soil. Flowering is almost continuous.
