Book (2000) Page(s) 229. Includes photo(s). Darling Dixie Raised by Griffiths. Parentage 'Paul's Himalayan Musk' x seedling. Introduced 1988. Type: Rambler. Size 5m. If you have the need for a vigorous, tough, quick-growing rambler to cover up an old tree, tank stand, farm shed, fence or trellis, then this rose can do all these things, at the same time producing delightful, small (3cm) flowers in clusters, which are the prettiest shade of pale lilac-mauve and are sweetly fragrant. This lovely variety will do the job for you.
