Read the overview first, then look through shared photos and real grower notes to get a better feel for how this rose behaves.

Overview

Introuced by Ralph Moore in 1988 Crested Sweetheart is one of a very few roses bred from Chapeau de Napoleon. (aka Crested Moss) Ralph Moore set out over 20 years ago to breed a new line of shrubs roses from Crested Moss, and this rose is the finest of these hybrids. Blooms are richly scented, medium pink and about 3.5 inches across. The shrub itself is a large freestanding shrub, but is best grown as a climbing plant with support. The buds have the same wonderful parsley-like cresting as its parent. For more detail about Crested Sweetheart, see the American Rose magazine, April 2000. Note: this is a once-blooming rose.
