From Jackson & Perkins Rose Test Panel Results: "Although the tangerine-orange hue and yellow reverse gave this rose an interesting color palette, it wasn't as striking as our other orange floribundas such as Outrageous, Disneyland Rose and now Tuscan Sun." Tuscan Sun was also one of the test roses in 2004.

Although this rose has multiple thorns, its beauty makes up for it. The roses are born on strong stems, and their unique color blending make them stand out in the garden. This rose has done well since 2004 and is still going strong. My USDA zone is 8a - Eugene, Oregon.
