Bred by Paul Barden (United States, 2007).

Floribunda.  

Dark purple and fuchsia / magenta.  Strong, old rose, raspberry, sweet-pea fragrance.  40 to 65 petals.  Average diameter 3.5".  Medium-large, very full (41+ petals), in small clusters, cupped-to-flat, old-fashioned, quartered bloom form.  Moderate, continuous (perpetual) bloom throughout the season.  Medium, rounded buds.  

Compact.  Large, semi-glossy, dark green foliage.  3 to 7 leaflets.  

Height: 30" to 5' (75 to 150cm).  Width: 30" to 5' (75 to 150cm).

Can be used for container rose, cut flower, shrub or specimen.  

Its fragrance is superb and matches the bloom color beautifully.

Update 2024: In the past 2 years, a few friends have grown this rose in climates different from my own and the rose has performed better than expected. And so, I have decided to formally register this variety as ARDclara (Clara Thomson). I have sent this out for propagation, and the nursery will undoubtedly announce availability when it has plants to offer.
