Princess Alexandra of Kent
Description
Princess Alexandra of Kent is celebrated for its unusually large, deeply cupped blooms in a luminous warm pink. Packed with petals, the flowers gradually open to reveal a beautifully arranged center while retaining their impressive size and substance. A strong Tea fragrance develops delicious hints of lemon and blackcurrant as the bloom matures. Repeat flowering and wonderfully showy, it is a standout for cutting gardens, fragrance gardens, and romantic borders.
