This is a charming rose bearing numerous, cupped flowers, with a cluster of yellow stamens visible within the center of each bloom. The color is soft pink shading to a paler pink on the outer petals. It flowers freely and almost continuously throughout the summer. The blooms are held gracefully above the foliage. The leaves are similar in appearance to those normally found on a hybrid tea rose. The powerful fragrance is an outstanding example of the English myrrh note introduced with ‘Constance Spry’ back in 1961.
