Spice single petaled Banksia roses are thornless andUnknown 4 to 6 feet "Spice" is another rose that some believe to be the true Humes Tea Scented China. Right or wrong this rose produces the palest of pink, tea like blooms on a 3 to 4 foot thick bush. The plant is twiggy in growth, more like our China roses and can mildew a little in the early spring. The flowers are good for cutting and have an unusual fragrance that probably earned it its name.
