Outstanding large flowered striped rose with lovely fragrance. Bloom color is highly variable depending on weather. Seems particularly well suited for coastal Southern California. Good exhibition rose for categories not requiring classic HT form. Excellent mildew resistance.Better classified as a hybrid tea instead of a grandiflora.

Can you please tell me how the bloom color is variable depending on the weather?

Thank you for bringing up a statement I made13 years ago. My statement referring to the variation in color in this rose is incorrect. The blooms of this rose exhibit considerable variability in terms of the proportion of red to white. The variation is intrinsic in nature and unrelated to climate or weather. This type of variability is common in striped roses and adds to the charm of these roses.

Heirloom's site calls this exceptionally fragrant while the HMF lists it as moderate. Does anybody know which one is accurate and also the size of the blooms? Thanks!

I would call it moderately fragrant.
