Chippendale/ Duchesse of Cornwall

Chippendale, Tantau 2012 (The Duchess of Cornwall in UK) 

Floribunda 

A very popular rose in Germany, Belgium and Holland. A floribunda with peach, apricot flat rosettes and a strong passion fruit /Mango fragrance. It reaches 120 cm but its also extremely suited for pots.
I got three by post in May last spring and they suffered greatly from the transport. I planted them in pots and they started to recover. Three weeks later they bloomed beautifully with outstanding blooms fading in color from orange to pink and apricot. The fragrance is indeed very fruity. A strong reblooming variety and ideal for smaller gardens and pots. 
Who doesn't want a Chippendale in his garden?
