Comments: One of the 'must haves'. Very small rose can be easily grown in a pot. Lots of blooming and quite hardy. Always the last rose to stop blooming in the late fall.
Now get this: 'Margo Koster' is a sport of 'Dick Koster', which in turn is a sport of 'Annike Koster', which is a sport of 'Greta Kluis', which is a sport of 'Echo', which is a sport of the climbing rose 'Tausendschon'! Talk about unstable...
But It doesn't end there! Margo has given rise to 6 named sports as well: 'Pink Koster', 'White Margo Koster', 'Summer Dawn', 'Margo's Sister', 'Scandia' and 'Climbing Margo Koster'.
