        Description
        This beautiful little rose has all the good characteristics of a Scottish Rose, but flowers almost continually. The fully double flowers are a lovely shade of fresh blush pink. The petals are loosely arranged to form pretty little rosettes, each about 1.5 across. There is a medium-strong Old Rose fragrance. It has small leaves and thorny, bushy growth. David Austin, 2002.

        Lochinvar

        Lovey rose with a profusion of flowers. Only issue is that it is very thorny. Great perfume.
        Would deter a robber.

        Great colour of flower

        Flowers are a very similar colour to Olivia Rose but don’t droop downwards. Looks very good in mixed border. Very happy with it so far.
