            A dwarf, perpetual flowering sport of the rambler ‘Félicité-Perpétue’. It produces large clusters of small, white pompon blooms, densely filled with petals. They have a pleasing fragrance. The vigorous, spreading growth forms a compact, rounded shrub with neat, glossy foliage. Henderson, 1879.

            Service

            Absolutely thrilled with the recent customer service provided and replacement rose sent. Especially considering it was most likely my errors which caused the rose to die!
            Thank you David Austin roses.
