Desírée Parmentier
Gallica
This is a wonderful rose if you have the space. The flowers are 3 to
4 inches across and are very bright pink. My four plants have grown
about 5 to 6 feet tall and up to 6 feet wide. It is very vigorous,
fast growing, and winter hardy. The
bush by my gate was from a cutting
taken four years ealier.
The foliage is very rough and medium green. The canes grow long and
will arch somewhat.
Besides being very colorful, the blooms are intensely fragrant.
So far, the only fault I have with it is that the blooms shatter
very easily.
