ARS:
Yellow blend Floribunda.
Registration name: SunQueen
Exhibition name: SunQueen
Bloom:
Yellow blend. Yellow upper, white reverse. Moderate, fruity fragrance. 41 to 50 petals. Average diameter 3.5". Medium to large, very full (41+ petals), cluster-flowered, in small clusters, cupped, old-fashioned, reflexed, rounded bloom form. Blooms in flushes throughout the season.
Habit:
Medium, upright. Small, glossy, dark green foliage.
Growing:
USDA zone 6b through 9b (default). Can be used for container rose, cut flower, exhibition, garden or specimen. Heat tolerant. Disease susceptibility: susceptible to Mildew. Remove spent blooms to encourage re-bloom. Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that.
Breeder's notes:
Beautiful cupped buttery yellow center with creamy white outer petals, fading to a many-petaled creamy white bloom. Nice long stems. Blooms in singles or large clusters like natural wedding bouquets. Thorny!
Patents:
Patent status unknown (to HelpMeFind).
Notes:
SunQueen is the correct registered name of this rose according to the hybridizer, Judith Singer.
