Madame Ernest Calvat is a stunning shrub rose known for its rich fragrance and full, quartered blooms in soft raspberry-pink with violet hints. Believed to be a sport of 'Madame Isaac Pereire', it was discovered by Marie-Louise Schwartz and named in honor of Ernest Calvat, an avid horticulturist with a special interest in Chrysanthemum hybrids. This rose is also admired for its abundant blooming that often continues into late autumn.
