As you can see,this beautiful Hybrid Rose (Tea Rose) has won many awards!
It is an excellent rose for the garden, and it makes a great cutting rose. It has very disease resistant foliage, long cutting stems,and blooms that keep their color well.
There is not a lot of fragrance on this beauty, but it is still a worthwhile yellow rose in the vase. Pare the bright blooms with some Lavender and Baby's Breath, and you'll have a sweet Summer bouquet.
As you can see from the picture, the light colored blooms get deeper towards the center of the
flower, and have a pleasing variation of yellows on each rose flower, with visable golden stamens on the fully open bloom.
This is a strong growing bush that will add a bit of soft yellow to the garden. It is how-ever winter tender in harsher climates. (winter protection is recommended.)
