Maura la Cava

Maura la Cava, Viru and Girija Viraraghavan 2014

Tea / Modern Tea 

Faith Whittlesey X Souvenir de Madame Léonie Viennot 

White, light pink edges with white reverse. Very large (12 cm or 4 ") full blooms in small clusters. Flushes freely throughout the season. Moderate to strong fragrance

Im very pleased to review this rose as Souvenir de Madame Léonie Viennot is one of my favorite climbers. I must say I like Maura la Cava even more. Definitely one of my favorite roses from Viru and Girija. 
Although the parents are tall growing this Maura la Cava is quite short and rounded with 90X90 cm or 3X3 feet. Makes a beautiful dense shrub filled with gorgeous big blooms. Zone 6b to 10b. Rain and Heat resistant
One of my favorites and highly recommended. 
Named after an Italian Lady with a beautiful rose garden.
