A Jackson & Perkins Exclusive
Nothing says summer like large, sunny rose blossoms, and this 2014 introduction from Jackson & Perkins is a perfectly beautiful example. Summer Surprise sets the garden ablaze with 5-inch, clove-scented blooms of a gorgeous orange and yellow. But don't think they begin and end the same color. Instead, they change as they mature, starting off yellow with lovely orange edging, but finishing as a wonderful blend of both cheerful colors. They are an absolute joy to watch.
Each bloom is comprised of around 25 petals and set atop 14- to 16-inch stems just perfect for cutting. And you will definitely want to cut a few, so their delightful fragrance can perfume your home.
Even when not in bloom, you'll love having this rose growing in your garden. The semi-glossy, dark green foliage is very attractive, and its size makes it ideal for a variety of uses, from inclusion in sunny beds and borders to hedges and even large containers.
