The Mill on the Floss is a vigorous-growing, slightly arching shrub rose. It bears large clusters of deeply cup-shaped, pink blooms with a fruity fragrance. The initially more intense pink of the blooms fades quickly, while the edges retain a more intense colour. The plant carries healthy, glossy foliage. The Mill on the Floss is suitable for mixed borders, specimen planting and as a container rose, and also tolerates partially shaded sites.

Elegant, delicate roseThe rose settled in remarkably quickly at its new spot and has developed lots of new shoots.
Overall the rose has a very elegant look; the shoots are a little soft, but by no means so that the heads hang down to the ground. The petals are very fine, and the delicate colour gradient from cool pink to pale whitish pink is wonderful. She looks like a young girl: fresh, playful, light-footed.
The fragrance is also quite special: very intense, fruity, fresh and somewhat different from many other roses; it reminds me of raspberries in a glass of water with ice cubes.Automatically translated · Show original
