This is a tiny cultivar by hybridizer Liz Fichl in which I am the seedling parent. The cross is L'amour x Mountain Magic. The length of the bloom from the tip of the calyx is about 7" and the width of the corolla is only 3" wide. After 3 years the plant has remained very small. I have actually been afraid to cut on it for propagation. I'll be sending the rootball to Liz this summer so she can start the propagation precess and begin to distribute this "little rose rabbit" (a very loose translation of the name...named by Liz... I can barely pronounce it!!).
This is the lightest color I have seen her. During the warmer weather she gets close to a reddish mauve color. All in all a nice cultivar but a slow grower. Great for patios or even small balconies.
