are high pointed, showing a full but open 
center. The 35 to 40 broad, glossy petals are 
precisely arranged, to make a majestic specimen 
to beautify any planting. 
Growth is tall and upright, to about 4 feet, 
with large, dark leaves. Good strong canes are 
crowned with bloom clusters all through the 
growing season. The tea fragrance is especially
