The Lilac Warrior
So it's one of my two 'Charles de Gaulle' hybrid tea-roses, soldiering on through Sydney's tropical summer storms.
'Charles de Gaulle' is a Meilland rose from southern France, and is arguably one of the toughest roses in the world - and is also wonderfully fragrant.
It is, I think, better than the other, rival, lilac rose 'Blue Moon'. It has a stronger perfume than 'Blue Moon'.
