Pink Parfait HT. Medium-sized blooms of soft pink. Most delightful, and a grand worker all the time. Very good growth with very nice foliage. One of the best.

p23. Dr. A. S. Thomas.   New Roses in Victoria. 
Pink Parfait HT. (Swim, 1960) One of the most beautiful roses that I have seen although it is far too small for showing. It is superb for decorative purposes, as a garden rose and as a hedge. It produces, freely and constantly, perfectly formed small two-tone pink blooms on erect stems. A very strong grower.
