Flower Type Double/Full Bloom

Hardiness Hardy

Fragrance Medium

Repeating Excellent

Here we have a rose of exceptional freshness and beauty. The flowers start as charming little buds, gradually opening out to form wide but shallow cups. These are beautiful at all stages, and have a pleasing formality of form. 

The colour is the softest glowing pink with hints of apricot. 

This rose forms a rather upright and bushy shrub and has attractive Musk Rose foliage that is exceptionally free of disease. The growth is short to medium in height. 

This is an excellent rose for bedding, borders or for arrangement in the house; the flowers lasting several days in water. 

There is a light myrrh fragrance.
