This rose is a favorite of mine. I love the color and form of the bloom. To me it is a lovely orange not gaudy at all! The fragrance is wonderful. I like Dolly Parton so well I would have twenty more if I could find them unvirused. Mine is a virus-ed grafted bare root. If you find this rose without virus please let me know the source!
