Tess of the d'Urbervilles® Zone 6 creamy pinkNamed for the Thomas Hardy novel, Tess of the dUrbervilles features large, fragrant, 4" flowers with 70+ petals in a bright crimson color. Her blooms have a nice, deeply curved shape in the early stages, and then her petals turn back to a less formal flower. Tess of the d'Urbervilles blooms are hefty and usually bend over, giving an elegant, cascading effect to the bush. Her growth is robust and spreads against large, dark green foliage. We love Tess
