The official rose of NZ's 150th celebrations in 1990 which set the standard for fragrance in roses. Super fragrant and while many fragrant roses can struggle, this one consistently performs well although I would have liked more blooms in the autumn. Now imparting its fragrance through breeding programs worldwide.
