Huntington Rose
A beautiful rose of true Old Rose character. The flowers gradually open to reveal a many-petalled center, the petals incurving in the most attractive manner. Their color is a pleasing shade of deep pink. They have a delicious, soft and warm Old Rose fragrance. This is a particularly tough and healthy variety with slightly arching stems which, at maturity, forms an attractive, rounded shrub. If pruned lightly, it will grow quite tall and be suitable for the back of a border. Pruned harder it will be of medium height and so could be placed closer to the front of the border. All the signs are that this rose will become one of our leading varieties. Named after the Huntington Library where Clair Martin is the curator for the rose garden. His continued enthusiasm for the English Roses has inspired many gardeners.
