Class: English Height: 6-7' Width: 4' Hardiness:to zone 5-10 Bred:Austin, 1985, UK Description: Double, repeat flowering, apricot, fragrant. Comments: This is among my favorite roses. It was planted in the Front Garden during the Fall of 2000. The canes are long and lax, making it a good candidate to train as a small climber. The huge flowers, packed full of petals, are so heavy that the heads hang down, further reinforcing its value as a climber. It has been disease resistant for me. The flowers are wonderfully fragrant and a rich apricot color. I just love this rose in spite of its common criticism. | ||
