    Rather a different sort of rose for us. This one arches and the roses are in clusters that bloom almost down to the center of the plant. It does have a lovely fragrance, and many people comment that they think the flowers are like apple blossoms. Also, this one is a good cut flower, and it has been used in wedding flowers for friends.

    A super healthy, arching rose that grows with sheer exuberance.
