I've had Princess Anne for a few years now. Foliage is incredibly healthy. Bloom is inconsistent. Some years she hardly flowers at all, this year it's wave after wave of beautiful blooms. Unfortunately, to my nose, there is no fragrance at all.

When the blooms have few or no crown petals, the stamens and carpels are well exposed. The cherry red stigmas atop yellow-green carpels add a bright note of color to the blooms.

It isn't uncommon to see blooms with few or even no crown petals or petaloids, i.e. the blooms are more semi-double or even single form.

This bloom conforms to the double form ascribed to Luetta Pfeiffer. Not all of the blooms on these plants do so.
