Hybrid Tea
Eye-catching chartreuse colored buds.
Some like it hot…and this is one!! The luck of the Irish may have finally brought a super slow-opening yellow rose that takes the heat. This saintly yellow can pick up a touch of gold in cool weather, but he'll be wearin' the green when the temps turn up.
Loads of novel chartreuse-shaded buds spiral open to yellow gold flowers of amazing stamina. Grey-green foliage. Heat brings out the novel color & best form. Slow-opening. A continual blooming bushy plant with grey green foliage really sets off the blooms.
AARS winner 1996.
