Double type; large; late midseason. Pale pink with faint old-rose shading and crimson marks; mildly fragrant. Dwarf; floriferous; strong stems. Good foliage. A deep cupped flower showing stamens. Petals very long and often shaggy in flowers from young plants. Excellent for garden use because of its dwarf, compact habit. “Medium height rather than dwarf.”—Thurlow. “Flowers of beautiful tint. Free bloomer.”—Boyd.
