(PPAF,
Var: KORbeteilich) - What's the difference between red and crimson? It's
hard to tell but this rose could be called super red because it is a bold,
strong color showing off in clusters of 5 or more flowers. This grandiflora
is typical in its clustering but not in its size as it behaves quite well
staying on the shorter side. Its lack of fragrance will display its disease
resistance as most reds with strong fragrance often display their propensity
for disease. A real eye catcher and AARS winner for 2000.
Class: Grandiflora
(PPAF,
Var: JACnepal) - Creamy white with a coral edge on perfectly formed blooms.
You won't have to look at your horoscope to see if you are a winner with
this as every flower seems to have perfect form. Its color will intensify
as it ages and you will find it with long cutting stems and terrific dark
green leaves to offset the flowers. Gemini signifies twins so you will
probably want to buy it in quantities of two. AARS winner for 2000.
(PPAF,
Var: RADrazz) - Shrub roses have been gaining in popularity over the years
since they have been so much more disease resistant than hybrid teas and
floribundas. Well, we have a new record setter as this new award-winning
shrub is almost immune to blackspot. Its bright cherry red color, robust
flowering effect and its shiny blue green foliage have already made waves
but it also is quite hardy. The habit is rounded as it continues to bloom
through the entire season and you will find it to be the perfect landscape
rose for the area of your garden where striking color is needed. AARS for
2000.
