Gypsy Moth, Florib. (Tantau, 1969). The rosy-salmon and pale reverse colouring is somewhat like that of 'Violet Carson' but darker and the blooms are larger. If fully disbudded this cultivar could earn a place amongst the hybrid teas on the show bench. About 30 petals. Vigorous with glossy dark green foliage.
