    I got this rose from Burling this winter, and it is now leafing out and blooming a few here and there.

    Because this is the PNW and its quite overcast, I noticed that blooms not subjected to harsh UV have a purple (wine) tone. The other thing I noticed is that new growth is very waxy, which I think is interesting.

    This is a nice healthy and vigorous plant,basically trouble free. Makes a good pot plant.If you like the flower, you can't go wrong.

    A few days ago there were photos posted for this cultivar. They seem to have disappeared. FYI. Thanks, Robert

    Typical case of double listing: 'Brittania' has been now merged into the correct 'Britannia', which you had seen earlier. Thank you for the heads up!
