Breeder's notes:
The most vigorous seedling was kept: quite a few died from BS before flowering, but this one was always a strong grower. Does seem to set attractive hips, although it won't rebloom if not deadheaded. Does get some blackspot although recovers quickly, never seen mildew.
Hoped for a darker color, but this guy is a very elegant pink, and a nice fragrance! Cuttings available on request.

Grown from seed given to me by Kim Rupert. (Thank you!)
