Bred from Distant Drums, the 4" blooms of Distant Thunder™ are much like those of its parent with lavender/pink flowers with hints of gold, brown, and mocha. She is extremely fragrant with a fruity, myrrh scent. Flowers are produced in profusion on this continually blooming, compact, bushy plant with foliage all the way to the ground. Expect new foliage to be a rich, reddish bronze color aging to deep olive-green with red veins and beautiful, serrated red edges.

Distant Thunder is very beautiful with it's delicate paper mache or origami shaped/textured blooms with gorgeous sunset colors. It is a wonderful symmetrical compact shrub for a small space. However, so far in my first year of growing it, it doesn't have any fragrance yet. I won't let that deter my 5 star rating just yet unless next year the fragrance doesn't develop. I know some roses need 2-3 years to develop their strong fragrance I've heard.
