Robert Duncan
Robert Duncan is a generous-flowering Rose, the blossoms of which are large, perfectly formed and graceful in their proportions. The petals are large, shell-shaped and curly. The plant attains moderate size, but is of sturdy formation. The color -- light scarlet or rosy lake -- is delicate from the first faint streaks observable, as the buds begin to open, until the petals fall. When planted in masses the effect is decidedly pleasing. [Samuel Todd Walker, 1913 Biltmore Roses]
