description for "Roses: Rosa 'Space Odyssey'"
Miniature Rose 'Space Odyssey' is even better than the "Star Child!" 'Space Odyssey' forms a bushy, rounded plant with superb disease resistance. Diminutive double blooms are velvety red with a white 'eye'. They possess a light rose fragrance and are held above the tiny foliagepossibly the next stage in rose evolution. Miniature roses are compact in habit with smaller buds and foliage. 'Space Odyssey' reaches just 16 inches tall. Minis are easier to over-winter than many hybrid teas in cold climates, needing only a mounding of soil over the base of the plant.
