It is perfectly names, as the color is just like pink frosting. Good little rose with lots of blooms. I had to spray religiously to fend off the Blackspot, though. But I live in Blackspot country and could only give this rose 4 to 5 hours of sun daily. So all things considered, I forgive her. ;)...See MoreRelated Professionals
