'Lady X' - Slight fragrance 1m. 1966. Long perfect buds of pale lilac on an almost thornless stem should make this rose very popular for floral work. Blooms are large, double, high-centred with a slight fragrance and about 35-40 petals. Growth is upright and the foliage is deep green, very large and glossy. Good disease resistance.
