Description
This rose really stands out amoung other Moss roses. The shade of its full blooms changes with the weather, ranging from dark crimson to purple. The flowers emit a strong and pleasing 'Old" rose fragrance.
The buds are very attractive and covered with red moss. The flowers are medium sized, full, displaying a blend of dark maroon-crimson and a lighter shade on the reverse side, creating an appealing color contrast.
This robust, densely branched shrub has dark foliage and numerous thorns. It is adaptable and can be cultivated as a small climber. This rose is well-suited for container gardening.
Regular spraying is necessary to maintain its health.
