Pink Pet Cl (Caldwell Pink, Cl)

Description

“Growth Size & Characteristics are: large shrub (5’+), short climber (under 10′), slight fragrance, repeat flowering” Information from Ashdown Roses. Many believe this is the same rose as Cl. Caldwell Pink, a Polyantha we have recently received from Ashdown. I am going to compare them when they bloom. The bush form of Pink Pet, with which I am familiar, is a continuous bloomer. I expect a strong bloom display throughout the summer from this rose . I will revise this assessment as I observe the Caldwell Pinks and the Pink Pets side by side throughout the season. Caldwell Pink has been designated an EarthKind rose by Texas A&M, meaning its disease resistance has been thoroughly vetted. So we will be comparing disease resistance as well.
