This rose was bred in Ireland to celebrate the retirement of it's breeder - Colin Dickson, whose family has been involved in growing and breeding many great roses since the mid 19t h century. So as we would expect it is a very good rose, the double flowers are well perfumed large in size and plentiful, there is apricot, pink and light orange in the flower which all come to the fore depending on the light conditions and age of the bloom. It flowers in flushes from early summer till late autumn. The leaves are mid green, glossy and healthy, its compact habit makes it a good container plant, or perfectly content planted directly into a bed or border. Show more
