'Golden Scepter' rose Reviews & Comments

The blooms begin with nice form, but open rapidly and soon have a loose, messy arrangement that I normally don't care for (which many of these photos show).. That said, I still enjoy these blooms, which are abundant and bring attractive color to the garden. The stamens are a gorgeous yellow, just a bit darker than the petals, and I like the combination..

Can anyone comment on the form and the longevity of the blooms of this rose. Some of the pictures show a very blousy, loose form which usually denotes a ragged looking and short lived bloom.
Is that the case with this Golden Scepter rose?

Trying to find a stockist of the Golden Sceptor rose in South East Queensland of Australia if anyone can help.  My mother in law has been searching for one for ages and can't locate a supplier.


Thanks, Sharon.

I hope this helps.  JD

Thanks Jim.  We've updated the Trewallyn Nursery listing on HelpMeFind.  Good point about this rose the different names for this rose - that's one of HMF's most useful features.
