What a spectaculor rose! Not only does this rose bush bloom abundantly, but the flowers hold their color well, even through the heat of Summer.
It is a vigorous growing bush that has lovely dark green glossy foliage. It is a stand-out in the garden, producing generous sprays of bloom throughout the growing season. Pretty, cupped blooms open flat, and are set off by the dark foliage, that is very disease resistant.
Here is a picture of the whole bush.
I photographed these bi-colored Grandiflora roses at the Elizabeth Rose Garden in CT, and I must confess, it was one of my favorites!
The swirling blossoms drew me to it like a magnet. It is a very beautiful rose. (unfortunately it is not hardy to my zone, so I won't attempt to grow it, but what a beauty!
