Daphne

I'm very fond of this rose. Daphne is a Hybrid Musk that produces lots of blooms in generous clusters. The blooms are quite small. There is a unique fragrance, reminiscent of pineapple.

This rose is a lovely companion to larger bloomed roses.

I've been growing this rose for a few years now, perhaps four years.

It's really beautiful, Krista. The large golden yellow stamens are really striking on this rose. It's great to see a rose close up like this that is rarely mentioned or shown.

That is a lovely set of pictures, Krista. I really like hybrid musks too, and I hadn't seen that one before. Thanks for posting.

Krista, what a lovely rose. Have never heard of it before. It has a very nice, subtle color and I like the way it shows its opulent stamens as seen in the last photo.

Thanks for posting about this not so common rose!

Thank you, everyone, for the kind words.

It does very well over winter, forms a four foot tall shrub here.
