Tahitian Sunset

Tahitian sunset, Keith Zary 2004 for Jackson & Perkins

A very special rose with magnificent colors and ruffled petals. This Hybrid Tea is something else. A tall shrub of 140X100 cm or 4X3 feet. The pointed buds open into these typical HT flowers but with ruffled petals. The color is so pretty: Orange with yellow, Apricot and pink, yes just like a Tahitian sunset. A strong sweet anise, licorice scent is present. Flowers are borne solitary in flushes throughout the season. Very disease resistant, zone 6b to 9b.
A masterpiece this rose. Available in the USA and in the EU, Guillot has her.
