Eden Rose 85  

Pierre de Ronsard
Variety name: MEIviolin




Although not an 'Austin-Rose' this is surely an 'English Rose'. Clusters of large, enormously double, cupped, strongly scented flowers which vary in colour from soft pink on the outside to deep pink in the centre. Hardy, vigorous and bushy, very beautiful, repeat-flowering shrub with the charm of the 'Old Moss Roses'. Can also be grown as a climber!
