description for "Antiques: Rosa 'Great Western'"
Antique Bourbon Rose 'Great Western' has long, flexible canes with rounded green leaves. 'Great Western' produces masses of flat, quartered purplish-maroon roses from late spring well into summer. As with most Bourbons, there may be some later flowers at scattered intervals. Well scented and luscious in arrangements; be sure to bring this rose indoors to enjoy.
