Launched in 1914 by Ludorf, Echo is a resilient rose variety that thrives in shaded areas and poor soil conditions, producing flowers from summer into fall. This robust plant features shiny green foliage and delicate pink blossoms that gradually transition to white. While it flourishes best in full sunlight, it can also tolerate partial shade. Its growth habit is characterized by a rounded, bushy form.
