Hybrid Gigantea / Tea
Pollen: Rêve d'or
Seed: (Echo X R. Gigantea) X Marie Van Houtte
Probably the best and most popular rose created by Viru and Girija Viraraghavan. Especially in California, Florida, Italy and India you can find her often. Most of Europe still needs to discover this beauty.
White with pink shading in the center, very double blooms in Tea style. Moderate fragrance although many speak of strong Tea fragrance. Blooms in clusters on a vigorous, rounded and well balanced shrub. 90X90 cm or 3X3 feet. Flushes freely throughout the season. Zone 6b to 10b. Can withstand burning heat. Very healthy foliage
She reminds me of Mme Bravy and of White New Dawn
In full flush this rose is covered with blooms. A sight to behold and remember.
Highly recommended rose
