This was probably the most lusty grower in my garden this year, none of the Hybrid Perpetuals making a greater growth. Strong reddish stems, mighty thorns (which aren't half so mean as the little thorns), healthy-looking, shining foliage—and the blooms! So many blooms on one bush seemed incredible. They were very double, with thick, waxy petals, and of a shade of flesh-pink which I find very satisfying. Flowers, too, are very large.
