    Noted by Antique Rose Emporium:
    "It is rather ironic that this hardy and easy to grow rose is not very well known and absent from most gardens. The delicate flowers are large, semi-double and lovely in color. A salmon pink washed with yellow gives us the impression of apricot watered silk. The fragrance is really special and though the bush is somewhat open, being thornless is a great compensation."
