description for "Antiques: Rosa 'Sarah Van Fleet'"
Rugosa hybrid 'Sarah Van Fleet' has proved itself vigorous in hot, humid Texas summers but only has moderate cold hardiness. The large, cupped and muddled flowers resemble peonies in form and are wild rose pink in color. Flowers are freely produced all through the growing season, and the "roses and cloves" fragrance is outstanding.
