R. 'Heart of Gold' Japanese Gardens

R. 'Heart of Gold' Japanese GardensThis new hybrid came about when I crossed my hybrid R.'Gosling' with (R. 'Cream Glory' x R. 'Viennese Waltz') in 2012. The flowers are large and very full, pink with a yellow glow in the throat. The foliage is apple green, with rounded shaped leaves. The bloom happens in late April, and the plant grows to 5 ft tall x 6 ft. wide in 10 years. Hardy to zone 8
