A rose we gave my brother and his wife to celebrate their Ruby Wedding in 2005. They had given us one in 2003 when we celebrated our Ruby Wedding and it has a lovely old fashioned rose scent. The catalogue description is a spreading bush below average height with the flowers grown on stiff stems.Theirs is over 4' and upright but that may be due to his pruning. Our one has never looked as good as this one and the flowers on this one are bigger than on ours but again due to his care. He does have slight mildew on his which we have not had and they are said to be fairly disease resistant.
