Comments: An older rose that still stands up today. The very first rose of its bright coloration to be widely grown. Very bright pink and yellow and orange colors on an upright bush. One rose to a stem makes it great for cutting.
Occasionally on this plant you will have a bloom that will make your heart stop. Blooms last a while on the bush too. Could stand to bloom a bit more, but you can't have it all.
