'Nokomis' rose References
Book (2018) Page(s) 199. Nokomis ....Vernon Brown and Dan Russo, specialists on Walsh roses, have discovered several plants around Cape Cod near where Walsh did his work that they believe to be 'Nokomis'. Vernon Brown has described them: "I have found three plants so far. The flowers open flat with about two rows of petals of pinkish lavender fading to lavender. The habit is typical wichurana, which is procumbent unless encouraged to climb by providing support." Hopefully, this identification will prove to be correct.
