'Kalmiaflora' rose References
Website/Catalog (2010) ‘Kalmiaflora’ is a most unusual, once-flowering seedling of that old classic ‘Wedding Day’. A vigorous climber/rambler that can easily festoon trees, smothering itself in huge clusters of small, single, cupped, Kalmia-shaped white flowers. Foliage is dark green and healthy. It is a beautiful, unusual rose. Discovered at ‘Birchbeck’ ,the Wildes Meadow garden of Pat and Judy Bowley in the Southern Highlands of New South Wales. 6m x 6m.
Magazine (2009) Page(s) 49, Vol 31, No. 1. Steve Beck: Our Christmas meeting was held at ‘Birchbeck, the spectacular garden of Pat and Judy Bowley located at Wildes Meadow in the heart of the Southern Highlands. ….the standout for me was Pat’s seedling rose which he has named ‘Kalmiaflora’ because of its unusual but very beautiful kalmia-like white flowers. I visited the plant several times to make sure I had taken in every aspect of this stunning rose. It is most probably a seedling from ‘Wedding Day’.
