Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Old Rose Hybrid. Rose pink. Approximately 120 petals. Repeat flowering. A charming and very valuable rose of low, neatly rounded growth. The flowers are of similar character to an old Gallica Rose; perfectly formed rosettes, each with a distinct lilac tinge. They have a strong, sweet, spicy, Old Rose fragrance. An excellent rose for the front of the border, where it will mingle beautifully with perennials and annuals. It may also be grown as a short, neat hedge within the garden and is an ideal choice for growing in pots and other containers. Sister Elizabeth is a Cistercian nun from the Holy Cross Abbey in Whitland, South Wales. She has long been a great rose lover. 2.5 ft. x 2.5 ft. (David Austin 1997, Auslot). Rosette shaped flowers. 120 petals.
