| Hybrid Perpetual Rosa Shrub size: 3 to 5 feet tall. 'Baronne Prévost' is one of the earliest of the Hybrid perpetuals bred. As a garden shrub, it is a bit coarse in growth, with plenty of thorny growth up to 5 feet by four feet wide. It is somewhat susceptible to blackspot under stressful conditions, but is otherwise a very sturdy and garden-worthy shrub. The canes are upright, but arching a bit with age, and well clothed in bright green foliage. The mid to deep pink blooms open flat and often show some quartering, as you can see here. They are not large blooms: about 3 to 3.5 inches across, but there are plenty of them produced in significant clusters at the ends of new canes. The blooms are well scented, as it is not far removed from its predecessor, R. damascena bifera. | 'Baronne Prevost' | Cuttings |  (thriftybunny) |
Rosa China Also known as ‘Common Monthly’, ‘Common Blush China’, ‘Old Pink Daily’, ‘Old Pink Monthly’, and ‘Parsons’ Pink China’, the myriad of names of this semi-double hybrid of R. chinensis attest to the friendly familiarity with which it has been grown for over two hundred years. One of the most common of old roses, it is also one of the most valuable, for it has passed on its incredible blooming prowess to countless cultivars during the history of hybridization in the West. ‘Old Blush’ has medium, semi-double, lilac pink flowers in loose clusters. They flush darker pink in the sun and are followed by large orange hips. It blooms so steadily that it is not a very good cut flower: the blossoms drop quickly to make room for their successors. The bush is full and upright in habit, growing slowly to over 5 feet, with neat, healthy foliage. Perfume is soft, but fruity and pleasant. Whether used in a hedge (which can be spectacular), as a specimen, or in a border, ‘Old Blush’ should be treated simply as a flowering shrub and not fussed over. | 'Old Blush' | Cuttings | (PlantFiles) |
