Damask Perpetual.  

This is a self seedling of Ralph Moore's 'Crested Jewel' which I have had in my garden since about 2000. I have neglected it for years until 2009 when I reintroduced it into my breeding program. It is very similar to its parent in every way except that it is fully remontant, producing at least three flushes per season. It only occasionally sets seed, so I expect to employ it mostly as a pollen parent.

It is undoubtedly a tetraploid.
