This is new cultivar by Monika Gottschalk. This seedling was grown in the U.S. with Shirley Morr being the seedling parent. The cross on this brug is Rosa Zauber x Ecuador Rose.
This brug is top contender for my favorite brug of 2007. Bloomed all summer long when it was so hot I could barely keep leaves on my other brugs. No bugs to speak of. The blooms are med-large sized and a nice dark pink. Nice tendrils that have a tendency to curl up like pig tails. Very fragrant. On the powdery side. She has numerous flushes every 4-5 weeks or so but is frequently throwing out single blooms in between these periods. With the double genes in her background, (Rosa Zauber is a Rothkirch x Charleston cross) I would like to breed back into that line and try to get some nice doubles out of her in the future.
