Breeder's notes:
Our good friends Becky (Rebecca) and John Hook , who grow a number of our roses and are always very supportive, came visiting us in March 2012. This particular rose was in good bloom, and we had grown it on a ‘table-top’ pergola, like what we had seen in the Jindai Botanical Garden in Tokyo in 2006. You could see and appreciate the flowers without having to strain one’s neck!. They were like pale pink butterflies sitting upon the beautiful gigantea foliage, with their large petals gently swaying in the breeze. Becky was enchanted. So we decided to name it for her.
