Bloom:
Rose-pink, deep pink center. Moderate, carnation fragrance. 25 to 40 petals. Average diameter 3". Medium to large, full (26-40 petals), borne mostly solitary, classic hybrid tea bloom form. Continuous (perpetual) bloom throughout the season. Medium, leafy sepals, long sepals buds.
Habit:
Bushy, climbing, upright, well-branched. Medium, semi-glossy, dark green foliage. 5 leaflets.
Growing:
USDA zone 5a and warmer. Disease susceptibility: disease resistant, susceptible to blackspot . Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that.
Breeder's notes:
Consistently on of the first repeat bloomers to bloom in the spring. Usually right as my earliest (R. xanthina and Yellow Altai) are ending their blooms for the year. A very lovely rose and nice to have around despite it being the usual pink. Never gives me any problems and is always around for me. Not a spectacular rose that anyone really gravitates towards but one that i like growing.
Patents:
Patent status unknown (to HelpMeFind).
Notes:
This is either an open pollinated seedling from Compassion or Eternal Flame/Pink Pillar.
First planted in the ground: July 2016
