(AusdorMrs. Doreen Pike
'Mrs. Doreen Pike' is a rose of modest charm.  The deep pink flowers are in the form of neat, medium-sized rosettes and give the impression of mingling with the small, pale green leaves.  It is very free-flowering and repeats very well - sometimes perhaps too well for its own good, so it is a good idea to take out some of the thin flowering shoots when pruning if you wish to get better quality flowers.  There is a lovely, strong Old Rose fragrance.

Named after Doreen, who managed our offices for many years, in recognition of her contribution to the success of the Nursery.
