    Noted by Antique Rose Emporium:
    "This rose shows very little from its parentage (Carefree Beauty, Basye Blueberry and Altissimo) save for the bright red flowers it gets from Altissimo. Foliage is very thick on bushy plants that can reach six feet. The flowers are single and plentiful. This rose reminds us of a red Mutabilis."
