A close up of the petals of the rose called Safrano. Quite a large shrub
rose that flowers through our winter each year. One of the first roses that
resulted from hand pollination, an innovative process at that time.
The new leaves are so pretty being a burgundy that contrasts beautifully
with this pale peach/apricot colour.

Bred in France in 1839
