The Royal National Rose Society is making this rose available to its members in Spring 1999. They describe it as a shrub with large, semi-double flowers that are sweetly scented. A very attractive display of hips is produced in the autumn. It was awarded a Trial Ground Certificate in the RNRS International Rose Trials but has, so far, not been available in the UK. Please contact the RNRS for more information -- contact information for the RNRS is listed under "Organizations".
Is it possible this is the same rose as Pierette?
