          Description
          This vigorous, upright rose makes a very good climber in both beauty and performance. It bears pleasingly cupped, pale lemon buds which gradually open to large, creamy white flowers, the outer petals perfectly arranged in concentric circles. They have a strong myrrh fragrance with dashes of meadowsweet, vanilla and heliotrope. The growth is strong and particularly healthy, and it is clothed in attractive matt green foliage.

            Unhealthy rose,don't buy.

            Do not by from David Austin, my Claire Austin rose
            came with aphids all over the buds and the leaves had rust and black spot. which could be passed onto plants nearby. They would not refund or exchange my money or plant.
            At £33.00 the y should be sending healthy plants out.
            I shouldn't have to treat the rose with insecticide and black spot remover,
            Save your money and buy one elsewhere.
            Not a good company.

            Fabulous plant - so bushy and healthy. A few brances were badly crossing which is annoying, but apart from that really healthy plant
