'Penelope' is a hybrid musk rose that was introduced in 1924. It is remarkably disease resistant, bushy rose with dark green foliage and clusters of fragrant, semi-double, creamy-pink flowers 8cm in width slightly frilled petal edges from summer to autumn.
The rose buds start out shell pink and open into white blooms with lemon centers. The flowers are very striking with a lovely rose fragrance.
