KBW C. Dreamin & First prize arer master piece very fragrant. I don,t have the California Dreamin but Paradise is very near to it. KBW i like the unique shades of these varieties.

[KBW]

Yes indeed Umar sb, California Dreamin and First Prize both are excellent roses. I liked the scent of California Dreamin better and also the white / cream colour mixed with rose pink.

Have a look at Bolero also. That is an exceptional rose. The scent is so strong that I can feel it from quite a distance, specially during evening and early morning hours. Flowers are very double and extra large. A good rose to have.

HMF defines the colour of this rose as a shade of orange but in Pakistani climate, it is more on the peach side. A very prolific patio rose which flowers continuously throughout the season. Forms a nice little bush which grows to around 2 ft in height. HMF mentions that it has mild fragrance but I did not notice any scent in the flowers.

There is a light fragrance sometimes. The bush looks really gorgeous with its dark green foliage and Lemon yellow bloom which fades to light yellow / cream, as seen in some of the pics. An impressive miniature rose.

Pictures:Pics have been taken by me in Toronto Botanical Gardens, Canada.










These pics have been taken in Toronto Botanical Gardens for the purpose of introducing few new and different roses to the members. I have no idea how will these roses perform in Pakistani climate and I am also not sure about their availability but with growing access to web store world wide, this is not a major issue now. I have observed the growth pattern of this rose at a few places and found it always covered with a bunch of small to medium size flowers. Doesn't need lot of maintenance.
