Simplex, Miniature, white RIR score: 8.7 out of 10. Parentage: (R. Wichuraiana X "Floradora") X Seedling Hybridized by Ralph S. Moore Introduced in 1961 Modern Roses XI says: Long, pointed, apricot colored buds open to reveal white five-petalled flowers in small clusters. Slight fragrance. Foliage is leathery on a vigorous, bushy plant to 12 - 14 inches. Botanica’s has this to say: Long, pointed buds open to small, creamy white 5-petalled blooms complemented by attractive yellow stamens. The florets have a light fragrance and come in large sprays at the end of strong, straight stems. The foliage is small and leathery on a vigorous, compact bush and the plant is easy to grow and maintain. On occasions the growth can be a bit leggy, and grooming the plant to a desired shape and size is rewarded by a profusion of new stems loaded with blooms. This rose is ideal for growing in a container. ZONES 5-10. |
