Sweet Juliet X Poustinia
Winner of several awards Sweet blondie is the best Martin Vissers rose to date together with Minerva.
Sweet Blondie Was the result of the cross between the David Austin rose Sweet Juliet and the Flemish award winning rose Poustinia from Jef Orye. The result couldn't be better.
The rose is very bushy making a nice rounded shrub of approx 80X80 cm or 3X3 feet. From late May till late October the shrub is covered with loosely formed double blooms in clusters. They are cream with a light yellow heart. When fully open the stamen are visible. The blooms soon turn into white in hot weather.
Extremely disease resistant and rain and heat proof Sweet blondie is a must have for every rose lover. Non stop blooming always is one of the best qualities in a rose. Ideal as a low hedge, as a border rose, as a standard (tree) rose and for in pots, she won't disappoint.
Her fragrance is light but delicious. One of the best replacements for rose Iceberg (Schneewittchen/ Fee des neiges) since this rose has become extremely susceptible to Blackspot.
Bravo Martin Vissers !
