What customers say
The 'Heritage' rose is celebrated for its intoxicating, complex fruity fragrance, often described as a perfect blend of lemon, myrrh, and honey. Gardeners adore its vigorous growth and reliable repeat flowering, which delivers continuous visual and olfactory pleasure. The deeply cupped apricot pink blooms are stunning. A consistent critique involves the structural integrity; the heavy blooms frequently droop, requiring staking or support for proper display. While this weakness is noted, most enthusiasts agree the unparalleled beauty and intense fragrance compensate for the maintenance needed. Disease resistance is moderate, requiring attention in humid areas. Overall, it is a beloved classic that rewards dedicated care with an exceptional sensory experience.
