(Rugosas) Pure white, semi-double blooms of the most delicate, papery quality open in generous succession from early summer well into autumn, each flower releasing an intensely powerful fragrance that carries magnificently on the air. The crisp, healthy foliage provides an admirable backdrop, and the plant obliges further with intermittent crops of ornamental hips as the season progresses. Blanc Double de Coubert remains one of the most beloved of all white roses.
