'Somasila' is a stunning rose with pink edged petals with a unique texture. The pink can sometimes turn darker towards a red. It has a stunning candy or bubble gum like fragrance for me. This is a vigorous rose in my garden but it's fragrance can waft through the air. It's a brilliant rose to grow for it's unique flowers which can be 4" across. The flowers in my experience have been borne as solitary blooms. I shall plant it in the ground and share better reviews later. It is usually disease free. The specimen is growing in Gurgaon in Delhi NCR ( India) .
