Lifestyle,
Bred
by Ralph Moore, Visalia, California 1992.
'Lifestyle'
introduced in 1992. Breeding: 'Little
Darling' X 'Rainbow's End'. This has been a most pleasant
surprise in my garden this year. I don't usually go for white roses
with blush picotee but this one is exceptional. The bloom form and coloring
reminds me very much of the Hybrid Tea 'Gemini'. Blooms are produced
one to a stem and in clusters of 3, and they are always absolutely perfect
in form and color. Exquisite little rose, this is!
