A
grandiflora with very novel 'backwards' bicolor whose light color
of deep golden yellow is carried on the inside of the petals with
a darker bronzy orange-red backside. This super-vigorous plant
yields long stems with full old-fashioned blossoms that catch
attention throughout the life of the bloom. The flowers, up to
five inches in diameter, offer a mild fresh apple fragrance and
are beautifully complimented by lush, clean green leaves.

A
low-growing compact landscape shrub rose reaching just 2' in height.
The massive clusters of fuschia-pink-blooms flower all summer long.
Each lightly scented single blossom is wide and flat, resembling a
little button. Foliage is glossy, deep green and highly disease
resistant. DayDream's diminutive size and neat round habit make it
an appropriate choice. Crown hardy to Zone 4.

to the soft, non-fading flower, and offers above average disease
tolerance to mildew and blackspot. Flowers bloom on 10 - 14 inch
stems and are 4 - 5 inches wide with a petal count of 50 - 55.
