This
rose is a sport of Nevada (which grows beautifully at my
mother's house) that was discovered in a New Zealand garden. It resembles
Nevada in every aspect except for the color of the blooms.
Marguerite Hilling is pink with gold stamens and Nevada
is creamy white with gold stamens. It forms a large graceful shrub
and is repeat flowering. It is also slightly fragrant. Needs room
to grow! I have since lost this rose but I include it here for reference.
