Thrips, both western flower and chili, are the bane of many Southern California rosarians. In some gardens western flower thrips have become almost lmpossible to control due to resistance to multiple insecticides. Gratifyingly Pillow Fight, a pure white rose, is tolerant of both kinds of thrips.

Truly outstanding rose with complex ancestry. Well behaved bush with tremendous bloom production. Seems to be immune to mildew. Blooms are disposed in lovely clusters. The rose should be reclassified as a floribunda. I have discussed the matter with the hybridizer, Tom Carruth. This would please the exhibitors!

JUNE 2010 ~PILLOW FIGHT~ is sold at Regan's Nursery in Fremont,CA where they had lots of pots of this rose! It was a grand sight with so many little 'fighers' set out along their front entrance to the nursery! I have this rose, and it is a true 'workhorse' on my balcony. Lights up the night, too, but minus the messy 'feathers' !
