FLORIBUNDA - GEORGE BURNS

A non-stop showstopper.

• Great disease resistance
• Suitable for zones 5 - 9
• Strong fruity fragrance

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

 Just the array of novel colors in every flower can bring a smile to your face…although maybe not as many smiles as its namesake, the late George Burns. The George Burns floribunda is an engaging performer, covered all season with full, rounded buds that swirl open into large, ruffled blooms

GROWTH HABIT

  It's a definite 'feel-good' rose; bright cheery ever-changing colors of yellow, deep red, rose pink and cream, big fragrant ruffled flowers, large clean deep glossy green foliage and a fairly compact yet free-flowering plant. More yellow shows up in moderate cool temperatures.
