Properties and uses:
The flowers of the Rose 'Moonstone'® are just like jewels cut in porcelain. They are of an exceptional calibre, have the colour of (nacre) pearls and their petals are edged with a fine pink line. The dark green foliage of this Rose acts like a frame and enhances the superb, sweetly, delicately fragranced, flowers. It is shown at its best planted on its own, or in a flowering bed, or in a tub placed on a terrace or a balcony.
