Adam container rose 'Calocarpa' blooms with large single-petaled1838 5 to 7 feet Peter Beales of England has identified this rose as Adam, which is believed to be the first of the Tea roses, thus the name is quite appropriate. It has fully doubled, salmon pink blooms with hints of apricot and buff. Adam can get quite large in comparison to other Teas and would be best if used in the back of a planting or as a short climber. The more we study this rose, the more we like it.
