Pumpkin Patch™ Rose
If it's orange, it's perfect for Halloween. So could there be a better rose to go along with the pumpkins and the ghosts? This one, released by Weeks Roses, a couple of years ago, is described as the color of pumpkin pie, on the caramel side. It's a floribunda, medium-sized, round and bushy, with a moderately fruity fragrance. Hybridized by Bedard, it's said to like a little afternoon shade. Parentage is Goldmark x Honey Dijon. Might be just the right thing for a planting beside the front porch, so that Halloween visitors won't miss it.
