Bred by the famous French rose breeders, Moreau-Robert, and named to honor our president upon his death in 1865, Souvenir du Président Lincoln produces beautiful, fully double, old-fashioned blooms of 80+ petals with a powerful perfume to rival that of Mme Isaac Pereire. His coloring is a lovely, crimson pink with darker shading. This vigorous, upright bush with greyish-green, matte foliage is a repeat-bloomer.
