My Caldwell Pink seems smaller than other Chinas in my garden which is near the Texas Gulf Coast and normally produces roses that grow larger than their descriptions. It is later than average to start blooming in the spring but continues almost all summer, fall (her best blooms), and into the winter. I planted her because she was an Earth Kind rose and she is definitely tough to thrive my benign neglect. The blossoms are an unusual color of lavender-pink.
