Lambert Closse
Lambert Closse is a relative newcomer in the Canadian
Explorer series, introduced in 1995. It was derived from a
cross between the floribunda Arthur Bell and the hardy shrub
John Davis. A small 3' x 3' plant, it is a great addition
to a small space and also works well in groupings. Blooms
are medium-pink with a touch of cream and repeat well throughout
the season. The foliage is bright, medium green, with good
resistance to powdery mildew and blackspot. As with others
in the Explorer series, it is winter-hardy in our Zone 4.
