'Beauty of the Prairies' rose References

‘Queen of the Prairies’ (also known as ‘Beauty of the Prairies’ and ‘Feast’s No. 1’) was the first of his seedlings and considered by many to be his best. Crossed with a gallica, this rose can cover whole walls or fences with its twenty feet of double, deep rose blossoms bearing a white stripe in the center of most petals. The blooming period of these clustering flowers begins after most once-blooming roses are spent. Their main flaw is hanging onto the stems after turning from pink to white to brown.

Queen of the Prairies produces cupped blooms of smoky pink that appear in small clusters along the wiry, thorned branches. The blooms are often too double for my wet spring season, but thankfully come late in the first flush of bloom and last well and long. The colour is often described as pink with white or blush stripes or streaks, and I find this effect most charming.
