This compact floribunda rose is moderately fragrant with sweet notes of pear and tea with a fresh green character, ideal for statement plantings, beds, borders, and containers. A multiple award-winner including All-America Rose Selection and Portland's Best Rose, equally at home in the garden and on the exhibition table.
