Medium to large, rosette shaped blooms in a mix of pink/salmon pink /yellow and apricot. The result is a very bright flower blessed with a strong fragrance.

Clementina Carbonieri has a rounded, balanced growing habit and can reach 130 X 120 cm or 4 X 3 feet. Zone 6b to 10b, heat and rain tolerant. Can withstand drought quite well.

Her reblooming skills are excellent. From mid spring to late fall she keeps on going. She's a bit susceptible to mildew but nothing serious
