Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The fully double roses of Archduke Charles are initially dark pink to red on the outer portions of the flower and are rosy pink in the center, with age the entire flower changes to red creating a bouquet of both red and red and pink flowers. The plant has an upright to spreading growth habit that is suitable for use as a specimen or as a free-flowering low maintenance hedge. Like Craimoisi Superieur but with a more compact habit and the same solid disease resistant disposition.
