Rich orange-red buds open to chalice-shaped blooms, filled with looselyarranged, orange petals. The surrounding outer petals are salmon-pink withbeautifully contrasting golden-yellow undersides. There is a pleasant, warmTea fragrance, with hints of spiced apple and cloves. The name is taken from one of Alfred, Lord Tennyson’s poems to commemorate the 200th anniversary of his birth.
