I have a decided weakness for roses that have single blooms (4-8 petals)...DAINTY BESS is one of the finest pink roses ever introduced, in my opinion. The blooms are accented with burgundy stamens when fully open and is a vigorous bloomer with minimal disease problems. It was introduced 90 years ago in Australia by E. P. Archer (and daughter). Only the very best roses have remained in cultivation this long...longevity is based on quality.

One of the finest roses I ever grew!

I love these. Will have to see if they will grow in So Cal, and can I get them for less than an arm and a leg.
