This one is a sport of Zephirine Drouhin. I planted it last year, it didn't bloom. I can tell it is not as vigorous as its' parent, but that may be a good thing. It seems to be healthy and has several buds, this one being the first one to open, wonderful fragrance. I love the softer pink, that is what attracted me to it, all the gorgeous pics on HMF.

This is one of about only half a dozen roses I have had over ten years. After neglecting it for several years, I pruned it way back in 2013, the bush is very healthy, taller than I ever remember it being, and loaded with buds. Roses can sometimes be very forgiving. I got this one from Edmunds, I think now Heirloom is the only nursery that carries it. It's not a showstopper, but it is a good rose and very fragrant, my daughter detects a lemon scent.
