HYBRID TEA - PINK PEACE
Probably the most popular and widely grown rose ever bred.
- RHS Award of Garden Merit
- Suitable for zones 4 - 9
- Slighty fragrant
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
This derivative of Peace had great aspirations to match the fame of its parent. It never quite made it that far, but it's certainly a splendid pink rose. The rounded vigorous bush produces large shapely lustrous clear pink flowers with a sweet fragrance and deep green foliage.
GROWTH HABIT
Even non-rosarians know Peace by its huge opulent blossoms, its delicious blend of colors, its very large glossy green foliage, and its easy-to-grow plant. Best color & performance east of the Rockies. Performance improves with warmer temperatures.
