Floribunda
Sheila, the hybridizer's wife, must be a lovely lady (and smell mighty nice too) to equal this gorgeous rose imported from England. Each blossom is saturated with wonderful fragrance.
Despite the Floribunda classification, her flowers of yellow brushed by deep pink are more like a Hybrid Tea in size and form. The vigorous rounded bush is loaded with glossy green leaves. Best flower color & size when cool.
Winner of the Royal National Rose Society's Edland Medal for fragrance.
