Heritage Pink


I do not know the name of this pink flower,  it came from the house that I was born in over 50 years ago.  My mother brought a piece of it with her when we left the house and planted it at the house in the country.  When I bought my own house she brought me a piece.  I have been here for 30 years and moved the plant three times.  Last fall when I moved the plant into the pink garden I gave a piece to my sister too.  With all the pink flowers available it is hard to find the name.  I do know the flower was common in Ontario in the 50's.  It is a lovely flower with a story.  The shape is similar to Mme Ducel, but all the pedals are one colour.  This is very fragrant.
