Cape DiamondPPAF-
Climber Rose One of the most disease resistant varieties in the world...and that's no idle boast! Black spot, powdery mildew, rust and downy mildew - unheard of for this rose. Abundant clusters of pure pink, double flowers have old-fashioned, spicy fragrance similar to Rosa spinosissima, the color contrasting nicely against semi-glossy, rugosa- like, gray-green foliage. Grow this vigorous plant as a large. spreading shrub or train it as a climber. Bred in Canada, it has proven to be well- adapted to harsh winters, surviving without winter protection in Zone 3. Flower Size: 3-4". Fragrance: Very spicy. Hybridizer: Bedard, 2009. |
