This is a absolutely beautiful rose with an amazing orange/yellow color and a nice strong fragrance too. The blooms are almost perfectly shaped and last a while on the bush. My only issue with it is it’s lack of disease resistance - it took a bit of time to grow and get established to really bloom a lot but I’m sure it’d perform much better and faster if planted in warmer more inland locations instead of along coastal Mediterranean climates

I bought this rose last year and have owned it in the past. It’s a gorgeous color and has survived a Southern Idaho winter in our front planter boxes. The new spring foliage is thick and healthy. As a precaution I spray for bugs before buds begin to form and use fish fertilizer the minute buds begin to form. I’m going to add the HR mint compost this year as added protection. But right now it’s very happy and healthy as it was last year when I bought it.

Betty was an impulse buy but I’ve never regretted my purchase! Her color is outstanding and the roses just keep on giving, it is among the last of my dormant roses that continues to bloom. The foliage is shiny and green. Completely disease resistant. I love my Betty!

Glad I planted! It is not as disease free as the other Heirloom roses I planted. But think it just needs more time. Its first season it put out some small blooms and maybe next year more like the pictures.

Rose did not survive 2nd summer in central Tx.
