Gruss an Coburg
Hybrid Tea, Pernetiana, 1927, J. Felberg-Leclerc.

Planted: Summer 2001
Source: Uncommon Rose
Exposure: Full sun

This rose is really growing on me. In it's third year it has become quite a prolific bloomer.

The blooms are quite colorful, apricot to buff that shade to salmon at times; in certain season palest buff, nearly white, and without shading. The color is saturated without being garish.

The fragrance is amazing, a penetrating citrus & rose fragrance.

The big surprise was the healthy foliage, as the Pernetiana Hybrid Teas are not noted for foliar health.

Once mature, seems to do best with a "Hybrid Tea Haircut" at Spring pruning time.
