Notes, Photos, and Shared Experience

Read the overview first, then look through shared photos and real grower notes to get a better feel for how this rose behaves.

Overview

HYBRID TEA - SUNSET CELEBRATION

A commemoration of the 100th year of Sunset magazine.
  • Strong to moderate fruity fragrance
  • Suitable for Zones 6 - 10
  • Excellent disease resistance

 Sometimes sunset hues are apricot burnished with cream, sometimes amber-orange blushed with warm pink and sometimes a clear warm rich peach. It just depends on which sunset. All these colors can come forth from this attractive well-formed Hybrid Tea, depending on your locale.

  No matter where it's grown, though, the plant fills out beautifully, full of clean green foliage and long stemmed blossoms. Deeper colors in cooler conditions.

AWARDS
