Cinco de MayoA difficult color to describe, is it russet brown or smokey lavender orange? Whatever description you use; it is a striking and unusual rose. The blooms are ruffled, occur in clusters, and sometimes it is hard to see the foliage for the bloom. A short rose in our garden, 3 X 3 feet, and the plant seems to have excellent disease resistance. Mild fragrance and hardy in our zone 5 gardens.
