Fantin Latour Rose
Fantin Latour Centifolia Rose
Rosa Fantin Latour Rose is an old Centifolia rose with a rich intoxicating rose fragrance from Queen Victorias time or before. The gorgeous, scrumptious powdery pink blooms appear in midsummer, and can be 3 inches (8cm) across when fully open. The shrub 'Fantin Latour' reaches about 4 feet, but can grow quite taller and wider, so give it plenty of room. Pruning after flowering increases the number of blooms for the following year.
