After its introduction, and for some years, this rose was the favorite of the exhibitions. The flowers, quite fragrant, are filled with numerous petals of a bright pink color and the bush is vigorous and compact, disposing of healthy thorny foliage that is rarely attacked by mildew. Madame Edith Helen (1879-1959), the Marchioness of Londonderry, was responsible for the creation of the gardens of Mount Stewart in Northern Ireland.
