I bought a Pink Peace in Reno, Nevada around 2016. It was beautiful and fragrant, but I would only get 3-4 roses on it per summer, growing about 36” tall. Moved to NE Oklahoma in 2019, replanted it on the north side of the house, below the raised porch. It is about 7-8’ tall now, and blooms almost continuously through the first hard freeze. Best rose ever! Beautiful and fragrant!
One of the most beautiful and free flowering roses in my dry, high mountain rose garden. I live in a difficult climate, and this gorgeous rose is a stand out in my collection of 120+ different rose bushes. First to bloom, last to stop, perfect classic shape, amazing fragrance, rarely goes more than two weeks between flushes—which are show stoppers.
It isn’t perfect, but it sure is close. The only issues I’ve noticed are: In the month of July, it does tend to throw a smaller, semi double bloom. In the fall, about 10% of the HUGE flowers have centers that tend toward green or vegetative. In early spring and fall, when we have warm days and chilly nights, it sometimes gets a touch of powdery mildew on leaves or buds in my no spray garden, but the flowers shrug it off and thrive. Pink Peace is so reliable and bloom crazy I overlook these small flaws.
4.8 stars out of 5. An absolute rock star.
This is my favorite rose. I love it so much l gave one to my best friend. Usually when l get roses my husband says they look like dead sticks. This one he said he could tell was alive. It seemed like as soon as l put it in the ground it was off and running. It has blooms as we speak. The smell ooohhhh the smell. I took two to work and a co worker said someone had on to much perfume! I called her into my office and she could not believe it was my roses.
I have had this rose for 8 years and it consistently produces prolifically. The flowers are bright pink, well formed and great for cutting. We used them with Love's Magic for a fabulous bouquet at my daughter 's wedding and no one could believe that they were from my garden. A beautiful and healthy bush and very winter hardy.
