Darlow's Enigma

Breeder: Unknown

Parentage: Unknown

Introduced into commerce by Heirloom Old Garden Roses

Class: Shrub

Color: White

Size: 5-? feet

Zone: Hardy

     I first saw this rose while exploring Cheryl Netter's rose website. It is a lovely white shrub rose that sports many small single roses. It blooms all summer and is quite hardy. A reputation for being disease-free makes this perky rose even more appealing.
      I have a baby Darlow's Enigma and hope to see some real growth next summer. When it outgrows its current location I will move it somewhere it can take center stage, as it is an attractive shrub throughout the growing season.
      Mike Darcy's Garden Reference Guide features an interesting article outlining a bit of Darlow's unique history.
