Bred by Verlie W., Jr. Wells (United States, 2005).

Miniature.  

Red blend, red edges, white reverse.  None to mild fragrance.  26 to 40 petals.  Average diameter 0.75".  Small, full (26-40 petals), borne mostly solitary bloom form.  Blooms in flushes throughout the season.  

Medium, upright.  Medium, semi-glossy, medium green foliage.  

Height: 2" to 3" (5 to 8cm).  

USDA zone 6b through 9b (default).  Can be used for beds and borders, container rose, cut flower, exhibition or garden.  Remove spent blooms to encourage re-bloom.  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.
