'Everest'. Old. Hybrid Perpetual. White. The cream white blossoms of this variety have a green-lemon center. The immense, fragrant, double flowers with 25 petals are arranged in clusters on a low, spreading bush. Used as a hedge, the 3 ft (1m) rose does well in poor soil but it is full of blooms during its summer season. Obviously named for the highest mountain in the world, the blooms do not like wet weather.

Everest. Hybrid Perpetual. ‘Everest’ is one of the last Hybrid Perpetuals, having been raised in 1927 by the great English, amateur raiser Walter Easlea. It deserves more attention than it gets, for the flowers are large, high centred, shapely and fragrant, though they are not really snowy but tinted with lemon towards their centres. Foliage is light green and the bush is compact, like a Large-flowered Rose rather than a typical sprawling Hybrid Perpetual. Indeed this rose’s only fault is its dislike of wet weather. ‘Candeur Lyonnaise’ x ‘Madame Caristie Martel’. Repeat flowering. Fragrant.
