Book (Dec 1998) Page(s) 242. Includes photo(s). Fire Princess Miniature. Moore (USA) 1969. 'Baccarà ' x 'Eleanor'... This plant is a strong grower and has no problems even in the coolest climate zones. The blooms tend to be judged as too big for a miniature but growing it in a container can reduce the blooms to a more acceptable size... the parent of many outstanding Miniature Roses...
