Abstract
A new and distinct variety of shrub rose plant is provided which forms in clusters attractive peach-pink blossoms that tend to lighten somewhat when fully open. The new variety exhibits a large arching growth habit with medium green foliage that exhibits strong glossiness on the upper surface, and good winter hardiness. The blossoms are round when viewed from above and are somewhat flattened when viewed from the side. Good resistance to powdery mildew has been observed. The leaflets commonly number seven per leaf. The new variety propagates well by the use of softwood stem cuttings, and is well adapted for growing as ornamentation in the landscape.
