Photo by Brenda Landers-Smith Mini-Flora. Bred in United States (2001) by Dennis A. Bridges. Introduced in United States (2002) by Bridges Roses. Red edge, white reverse, mauve & mauve blend [ARS m] blooms. Moderate fragrance. 26 to 40 petals. Average diameter 2". Medium, borne mostly solitary, exhibition, full bloom form. Repeats its bloom again later in the season. Tall, upright growth habit. Medium, glossy, dark green foliage. Height of 36" (90 cm). Used for beds and borders, container rose, cut flower, exhibition or garden. Zone 6 and higher. Very vigorous. In the Winter, remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that. Remove spent blooms to encourage re-bloom.
