Strike It Rich
Grandiflora - Deep golden yellow spun with orange-pink
2007 AARS winner. You’re in the money…if you love spicy fragrance, loads of bloom & super-long elegant buds of gold polished with rosy pink. The long-lasting sparkling yellow-orange tones of this award winner are rich & opulent enough to bring out the gold digger in any gardener. But it doesn’t take a stash of expensive chemicals to keep this good lookin’ girl happy in the landscape. The natural disease resistance & strong vigor do the deed. Very dark green leaves & unusual red stems set off the many showy clusters of blossoms. Hit pay dirt with Strike It Rich!
