For Big Ben It is not known how this rose, which came from the English firm Gandy's roses in1964, looks in a warm climate, but in the cool summer it looked outstanding. The blooms were of perfect, velvety crimson, and very fragrant indeed, as one would expect. Foliage is mid-green. Ena Harkness X Charles Mallerin Repeat flowering, Fragrant.

My family had this rose some 30-odd years ago in Miami, Florida. It was grown in sand and neglected, and still produced fabulous classic red blooms. It was THE red tea rose to grow for us.
