It has elegantly simple pink flowers that are quite fragrant, creating a delicate perfume that drifts gently through your garden. What sets it apart is how much growth it can put on each year. Its final height is not any bigger than other varieties, but it seems to reach mature size sooner, growing as much as 10 feet in a single season. Netherlands 1992. AGM winner!
