| Sweet Dreams, Apricot
Sweet Dreams This is a Floribunda as it's
listed but here I'd think better to list it as either a climbing floribunda
or miniflora. It tends to put up 4 -5 foot canes here and produces a
multitude of lateral growth much in the character of a climber.
Perhaps in the cooler climates of Canada or the northern US it is more
accurately though of as a "bush" rose but here in the south it's much more
vigorous than that.
The foliage is rich and dark, healthy for us
with little care. The gorgeous blooms of apricot or peachy pink are
produced liberally in spring. I have noticed a "lot" or repeat in this
variety but I rather think it's only a matter of dead-heading being
required.
