    Noted by Antique Rose Emporium:
    "Mike Shoup claims this rose is the best of the "Pioneer Series" of roses introduced by the Antique Rose Emporium. It is truly exceptional! The fragrant, quartered blooms of peachy apricot appear in late spring and are followed by a strong fall repeat. The foliage is clean."
