What is a Romantica rose?
Meidiland, the big rose nursery in France, has introduced a line of roses that are very full of petals and look like the old roses. They call them Romanticas and they all have names of well known people in history such as Leonardo da Vinci, Toulouse Lautrec, Auguste Renoir etc. These roses are a mixed classification as some are hybrid teas, floribundas as well as shrub roses.
