Honorine de Brabant

Honorine de Brabant

Bourbon

Honorine de Brabant produces a nice flush of blooms in the spring that are pink with dark pink/red stripes. It then blooms all summer until frost, but not with the same volume of blooms that were in the first flush. The wonderful fragrance is intense enough to be carried across an acre lot on a light wind.

In Colorado, it forms a nice upright bush about 5 feet tall. After winter, there may be a little dieback. Here is another bloom of Honorine de Brabant. And here is a picture of the bush.
