True Irene Watts

Hello.
In America, it has been said the rose sold as Irene Watts is Pink Gruss an Aachen. I found both Irene Watts and Pink Gruss an Aachen on Peter Beals' website. Is this true? If it is true, I really want to see the flowers of true Irene Watts.
Will you show me some pictures of your Irene Watts?
Thanks in advance. |

Thank you very much for your beautiful picture!
There stiil are true Irene Watts in Europe.
In the American Rose Society's magazine, American Rose 2004 August, it reads: it seems very clear that all the plants being grown commercially in the United States and much of Europe as Irene Watts are really Pink Gruss an Aachen.
They don't say all the plants in Europe are Pink Gruss an Aachen. Is your Irene from Peter Beales? I'd like to see the true Irene Watts by myself someday! Rosaline |

| Rosaline, I am not sure about the origin of this rose. I grafted her this summer from a mother-plant grow in a private rose garden, but could not trace back the origin of the plant.
I do not know if she is different from Pink GaA as I do not have ink GaA. My "Irene Watts" is really a nice rose. Hope it help. |
