Miniature, Patio.  

Apricot to salmon-pink.  Mild fragrance.  Double (17-25 petals) bloom form.  Blooms in flushes throughout the season.

USDA zone 5b and warmer.  Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that.  Can be grown in the ground or in a container (container requires winter protection).
