The ability to produce delicately perfumed, buff pink flowers throughout summer, and maintain an excellent resistance to disease, (even when surrounded by roses which are falling by the wayside), has earnt this rose the prestigious title of Rose of the Year 2011. Bred by Kordes of Germany, it has a compact habit and glossy, green foliage. - Garden care: Enrich the soil before planting by digging in loads of composted organic matter and ensure that the 'bud union' (the bulge at the base of the shoots) is approximately 5cm (2in) below the soil.
