Small
semi-double creamy white blooms with yellow stamens cover this dense,
twiggy hybrid multiflora rambler in late April. It is quite vigorous
and will cover a 20' x 20' area in just a few years. I am unwisely
growing mine on a pergola where it is threatening to take over the
other roses growing alongside it. It would be a better candidate for
growing up a tree or covering a small building. It has nice green
foliage that shows good disease resistance. Also known as "Shakespeare's
Musk". A lovely rose and beautiful when in full bloom but beware
of its vigor and size.
