Philippa Pirette

Philippa Pirette:

A Tea found by Walter Branchi before 1997 at the entrance of an abandoned hotel in Italy. It's quintessential Tea shaped buds unfold into perfect pink with silver shading flowers of great perfection. Beautifully scrolled back petals make her a real showstopper.

No tall rose as she can reach 100X100 cm or 3X3 feet. The flowers dangle gracefully on the slender canes. Good Tea fragrance. Reblooming is very good and the flowers last for days. She can withstand some rain, heat and drought. Zone 7b to 10b.

This rose grows well in pots and makes new growth quite easily. A very beautiful addition to the Tea family
