Slc Deborah Off
This is the blooming for winter/Spring of 06-07.Never fails to put on a show for me & the flowers last a long time.It's the damndest thing to photograph as I can never get the brilliant show of orange that it actually is but maybe some day.No matter where it is in the greenhouse the colour draws your eye to it immediately.I divided it into 3 different plants last Spring of which I kept 2 of them in 4" pots.This one has 15 flowers (buds counted).Sorry I can't get the colour right but if I ever do I'll post it.

Brought it indoors instead of greenhouse & this is much better so that you can get the colour idea.

Jane that is absolutely wonderful!!!
I used to have a rose, called City of Belfast, that was similar in color - and I had passers-by stop to comment on its eyecatching color. I could never photograph it to my satisfaction and finally reasoned that it was a gift of nature to be anticipated & enjoyed in person! Making it all the more treasured.

Lovely Jane - very floriferous, beautiful rich color. The unopened bud color is pretty good also!
