    Carcassonne Castle has elegant cupped blooms, packed with petals, and growing in clusters resembling small bouquets. Cream-colored buds with subtle cerise striping open into blooms of apricot and pink. The roses of Poulsen's Castle® line are commonly sold in pots by florists and grocers and grow well on their own roots into compact floribundas 2-3 feet in height. Mine, which came from Hortico many years ago, is a grafted rose and is easily 7 feet tall.
