(AuscrossWindflower
One of our most beautiful English Roses.  It bears its flowers high up on wiry stems, giving it an airy profile not unlike that of herbaceous anemones (or windflowers).  The blooms commence as cupped buds and open to dainty, rather informal and slightly cupped flowers of soft lilac-pink.  It is remarkably disease resistant and repeat flowers well.  There is a charming Old Rose fragrance, with hints of apple and cinnamon. [...]
We chose to name this rose after the common name for Anemone because it holds its flowers with something of the grace and poise of the windflower.

Windflower Description... Related to the Alba Roses... the flowers are daintily formed with scalloped petals that incurve at the tips, which give the kind of charming, rather frail effect commonly associated with anemones (meaning 'windflowers' in Greek)...
