Princess Aiko® (Beloved)
Princess Aiko (Beloved) is a Japanese garden rose bred for the empress. Her remarkable color, a bright peach, is set off with sparks of cream and coral. The slight variations in hue set off the overlapping lines of her concentric petals, forming an almost spherical bloom of medium size that opens to 80 percent, retaining its lovely shape. Princess Aiko’s dark green foliage makes a striking contrast.
