Thank you, very interesting! My first thought with roses specifically marketed as being edible is that they wouldn't want to be reliant on toxic sprays to remain healthy, but when I look up the file here of 'Renee van Wegburg' I see that it is healthy and can be grown organically, so they have obviously factored that concern in.

I guess how gimmicky it all is might rely on how true the taste claims are. It suggests to me the description of some wines - I can rarely taste all those subtle taste descriptions.

But this beauty offers an unusual color show, with swirls of red, pink, and white in each flower. No two are the same! Blooms continuously without deadheading.
