Pink Peace

Pink Peace, Meilland 1958

Hybrid Tea 

Peace X Mrs John Laing 

Peace, the most successful rose in history, has many offspring because she was and is a great mother. This Pink Peace is a daughter of Peace and the father was nothing less than The incredible Hybrid Perpetual Mrs John Laing. So the result was pretty much predictable: Huge, strong pink blooms with a very strong Mrs John Laing fragrance. The buds are high centered and unfold in typical Hybrid Tea fashion. An exquisite cut rose. A very vigorous rose as she can get 200 cm or 7 feet, just like Peace itself. After all these years the health is superb and she reblooms good. Drought resistant and rain tolerant. People from dry Arizona tell me she's the star in their desert dry garden. Zone 5b to 9b
