Morden Blush
Parkland/shrub(1988)
A beautiful, very floriferous shrub rose released from Agriculture Canada's Parkland Series of roses.
Continually in bloom, Morden Blush is a very popular hardy rose. The bush grows only 2' x 3.25' high.
The
hybrid tea like blooms of blush pink are born in small clusters. The deep pink buds and lighter
pink older blooms give the rose much interest. Good resistance to mildew but can have some
susceptability to blackspot in wet summers. A little sulfer does the trick. Little fragrance but it pays up
for that in sheer beauty and lots of blooms. A real winner amoung hardy roses!
parentage: seed parent cross of Prairie Princess x Morden Amorette. Pollen parent was complex
hybrid from Prairie Princess x White Bouquet x Assiniboine x R. arkansana. center>
