Description

Fragrant, full double flowers open blush pink with lavender color highlights. The pigmentation is more pronounced in cool spring climate. The color soon fades to blush and eventually to white with age. The large flower is well-furnished with petals, broad guards surround layers of petal segments that successively grade narrower toward center. Altogether, a nicely tailored flower that boasts a distinct rose fragrance. The bush has a very satisfying plant habit, it is quite vigorous and a dependable bloomer. It produces ample color on an attractive bush within a few years of planting. The blooms are carried well above a canopy of the dark green foliage. Stems lean when in flower and require mechanical support in the viewed landscape. This variety is an excellent choice for the cut flower garden and makes a good cutter for commercial growers.
