Enormous round
petals always translate to BIG blossoms with lovely flower form.
In the case of Sunstruck, each large petal is an artistic
masterpiece of deep yellow gold blushed & bordered with apricot
orange. A surprising bright yellow 'peacock' fan pattern on the
reverse of each petal gives this rose its name. Long stems with
deep green leaves carry each regal flower.
Note:
Kathy
Dodson recently planted this new rose and has been reading that
it is a beautiful rose with exhibition potential. |
