description for "Antiques: Rosa 'Penelope'"
Antique Hybrid Musk 'Penelope' is a chunky shrub adorned by massive clusters of large, pale pink semi-double flowers fading to peaches and cream. Fat, orange-pink hips weigh down the bush in fall and winter. An excellent choice for hedging as the bush is dense and smothered in flowers with a good repeat. 'Penelope' shows excellent disease resistance, making gardening success even easier.
