Evelyn has blooms 4 to 5 inch. across. Biggest bloom among my 150 fragrant own-root varieties, besides Peter Mayle. It's the large pink bloom in the bouquet.

Below was Evelyn's 1st bloom on a gallon own root plant at 4" across in hot weather near 100 F. Evelyn is very vigorous as own-root and can produce large bloom in its 1st year with intense peachy scent. Scent is strongest among my 34 own-root Austins, and sweeter floral than Abe. Darby and Princess Charlene de Monaco.

Note the shiny & glossy leaves on Evelyn (bought 12 years ago as own root from Chamblee's Nursery in Texas), and its reddish big thorns. Scent is strongest among my 34 own-root Austinn roses. Scent is amazing even on 1st bloom of tiny rootings.

Evelyn bloom can get big at 5" across. Behind salmon is Sweet Mademoiselle, beige is Princess Charlene de Monaco. My Evelyn is 12th-year own root from Chamblee's Nursery in Texas, always healthy NO RMV. Scent is sweet peaches and floral (similar to Nahema). I can close my eyes and identify it just by its amazing scent.
