Comment
For over 60 years, this pink flower has been a favorite of Canadian gardeners and florists, who esteem the variety for both its vigor and its beauty, both of which are reminiscent of Canada.Did you know?
Introduced in 1954, the flower of the Queen Elizabeth rose is the result of a cross between the flower of the hybrid tea rose Charlotte Armstrong and that of the floribunda rose Floradora.
Queen Elizabeth was the first rose to be listed in the grandiflora class, created expressly for it; however, this class is not universally recognized, so it is sometimes classified under floribunda roses.
There is a climbing variety of the Queen Elizabeth rose, but it doesn't flower as profusely.
Easy to care for, the Queen Elizabeth rose has a worldwide popularity that doesn't wilt: its flower is lightly scented and its long stem is ideal for bouquets!
In Canada, one of the most important qualities a plant can possess is its versatility, and the Queen Elizabeth is no exception. The rose can reach 1.3 meters in height, and its medium-sized pink flowers grow in clusters. The corolla has a pointed heart and 26 to 40 petals. Although low-maintenance, requiring only a few snips, the rose takes up a lot of space and grows vigorously. An excellent addition to any sunny garden, the robust Queen Elizabeth offers flowers that are truly magnificent. A combination of qualities reminiscent of Canada.
Packaging
The coin is encapsulated and presented in a burgundy double-shell case featuring the Royal Canadian Mint logo. The case comes with a black protective box.
