(Moss Roses) Clusters of vivid crimson-pink, semi-double blooms open with a joyful informality, their richly mossed buds among the finest of the Moss roses. Borne on long, graceful stems, the flowers carry a deeply satisfying fragrance that drifts generously on the summer air. A single glorious flush in June and July makes every bloom count.
