A new shrub rose with ochre-coloured flowers has been introduced by the French Nursery responsible for the introduction of the varuety 'La France' in 1867, the first ever hybrid tea rose. The new variety 'Hella Mascorab' grows to about 80cm and the flowers have a delicate fruity fragrance. The variety blooms from May until the first frosts.
