Actually, Norway is partly in climate zones 7 and 8 due to the Gulf Stream. The garden in Norway which lists 'Totenvik' is in Zone 6b. The place "Totenvik" is near Hammar in southern central Norway, which has minimum temperatures of down to -25oC. We have therefore modified the lower limit to 5b, but can further adapt if more information comes in from our Scandinavian members.

The rose is named after a place in Southern Norway called Totenvik. It grows very well (better than Rosa spin. plena) and is probably a local sport of 'plena'. The flowers have a slight tone of yellow (almost not noticeable). Flowers have a strong scent. Summer flowering only. It should be grown on own root. Very healthy and winterhard.
