Fragrant Apricot

Fragrant Apricot, Zary 1998

USA rose wizard Keith Zary gave us Pope John Paul II but he made many more masterpieces and especially for us in Europe. Slowly they are getting introduced in the EU and with our non EU brothers in the UK. Fragrant Apricot is such another marvel created by Zary. It's available at some nurseries in France and Germany.
This Modern Hybrid has exceptionally beautiful apricot, very full blooms. They get lighter towards the edges and stand in clusters. They are big, at least 4 inch or 13 cm in diameter. They exude a very strong Damask fragrance. Overall these blooms look puffy and baroque. Perpetual blooming throughout summer and autumn. Zone 6b to 9b. Very healthy
120X100 cm or 4X3 feet
This rose is right up my street
