What's Blooming Now - Heritage Rose 09/18/10




Heritage is a David Austin rose. It was introduced in 1983. It is described as a very delicate porcelain pink, but I think of it as the very palest coral color. The rose Iceberg is one of its parents. Iceberg is a prolific bloomer, I don't think Heritage is quite as a heavy a bloomer as Iceberg, but I live in the hottest place on earth, and it may be a function of location. It is black spot resistant. Heritage is one of my favorite roses. It has a wonderful scent, and it is practically thornless.
