Description
Its flowers starting from a soft pink colour that swiftly lightens to creamy-white when fully open. The flowers are very full, opening flat even during rainy conditions.
The moss on this rose is a rich green and somewhat prickly; when touched, it releases a strong, long-lasting balsam-like scent. While scented moss is not uncommon in roses, it is particularly strong in this variety compared to others.
A tall rose that requires support but has many admirable qualities.
