Sun Goddess Hybrid Tea ('Sunbright' x Seedling);
Warriner (1993 in United States)Date Planted: May 1996 Source: Jackson & Perkins, potted Exposure: Full sun all day
This lovely Hybrid Tea is out of commerce. Why, I have no idea; it's a lovely rose and remakably healthy for a yellow Hybrid Tea (the genetic contribution that
introduced the bright, chromium yellow and saturated orange colors is also to blame for much of the disease susceptability of so many Hybrid Tea roses.) She will get some blackspot (I do not
spray) but does not defoliate and quickly bounces back. I'm very please with this one.Shrubby and vigorous to about 4' tall or so, with lots of large, leathery dark green foliage
and generous blooms. The 3" flowers are lightly scented and last well when cut; fabulous in arrangements! She blooms in flushes; in my garden I can count on at least three solid bloom cycles per season. To see more photos, visit the Photo Gallery!
