This is one of Luxembourg's most charming polyantha roses. When in full bloom, a shower of dense clusters transforms it into a misty cloud of pure white. Its tiny double flowers open into rosettes which, under certain climatic conditions, take on a carmine hue. The deep green foliage is highly resistant to fungal diseases. After removing wilted flowers and adding fertilizer, the rose bush blooms again with panicles of 100 to 150 flowers. Ideal for growing in pots or in groups in a sunny location.
