The Fragrant Rose List


Quartre Seasons

(Autumn Damask, ancient) – clear pink. The strong fragrance is the very definition of the classic damask scent. The blousy blooms aren’t my cup of tea but for an "historical interest rose" this is the cultivar of choice as it dates back to the ancient Greek civilization where it was dedicated to Aphrodite the goddess of love and beauty. It is also the first repeat blooming rose. However, Quartre Seasons is somewhat of a cruel beauty as she packs some wicked thorns. Recommended by angelsmama.
