most floriferous of roses and since the flowers are held on long stems, it is
good for cutting.

Description
and Care:
Arching canes that are covered with soft,
olive green leaves. Growth is very vigorous.
Flowers are produced in clusters that can weigh down the branches and
produce the arching effect. Effective
as a pillar rose. The blooms are good as
cut flowers and it repeats very reliably. It can tolerate some shade.
Comments:
This rose is well adapted to warm climates but it does suffer from
blackspot.
