Rosa 'de Rescht' is a Portland Damask rose introduced by English gardener Nancy Lindsay in 1945.

[5] It seems that this rose originating in Iran was reported in the year 1880 in England, then in the year 1890 in Germany, but it was then forgotten and was not reintroduced to England until 1940–1950, when it was rediscovered in Rasht.

[6][7] Rosa de Rescht's bloom form is double, their color is deep pink (dp) and they are highly fragrant.

Flowering time is late spring/early summer; it blooms repeatedly.

[8] Lindsay named the cultivar 'de Rescht' after the city of Rasht, the capital of Gilan Province, Iran, located along the southern coast of the Caspian Sea, where she discovered it to be growing.
