*BIG SUR
*BIG SUR (Stamile,P.,1999) TET T-542 (Chance Encounter
X Seminole Wind) 30” EMRe. Sev. vfr. ext. EMO. 6 1/2" x 3 1/4"
x 2 1/4" . 3 - 4 way branching
(3 way + terminal y or 4 way). 20 - 25 buds. This huge rose
has been a favorite of mine and my fellow hybridizers since it bloomed
as a seedling in the garden. BIG SUR is big and flat with heavy substance
and deep fluted ruffling. The throat is lime green and relatively
large for the flower. Strong well branched sturdy scapes display the huge
flowers well. Deep dark forest green foliage sets off the bright
glowing rose pink flowers nicely. BIG SUR is consistently a
standout in the garden. Absolutely gorgeous in a clump, it always
seems to draw a crowd. For the hybridizer, BIG SUR makes strong husky
seedlings like itself and has shown itself to be a powerful breeder for
pinks and roses. Fertile both ways……….$150.00
