Artistry

Artistry Artistry paints a landscape of soft coral orange with 30-petaled flowers that can grow to 5 inches across. The hybrid tea's pointed ovoid buds rest upon dark green, semi-glossy foliage. This beauty stands to 5 feet, with upright and well branched canes. Sixteen to 18-inch stems and a light fragrance make Artistry a natural for cutting gardens allowing gardeners to bring some romance indoors. Keith Zary hybridized Artistry from a combination of two unnamed seedlings. Bear Creek Gardens is the introducer.�

Timeless

Timeless Timeless promises endless deep rose pink blooms. Another hybrid tea, the pointed ovoid buds of this rose open to reveal 4-inch flowers with 25 to 30 petals each. Growing to 4 feet, Timeless is cloaked in dark green, semi-glossy foliage on upright, well branched canes. Gardeners are sure to be passionate about this eye-catching rose, pairing it with complementary suitors like foxglove and delphinium to create a romantic landscape. Timeless is the offspring of a unnamed seedling and Kardinal. It was hybridized by Keith Zary and introduced by Bear Creek Gardens.�

Scentimental

Scentimental Scentimental intrigues the senses with burgundy and cream striped petals and a sweet spice fragrance. This free-blooming, rounded floribunda mimics the look and scent of the striped hybrid roses of the 1800s. Although striped roses date back more than 100 years, Scentimental is the first striped rose to win the AARS award. Deep green, quilted foliage flatters large, pointed buds each opening to expose a swirl of color as unique as a snowflake. The 4-inch flowers have 25 to 30 petals. Introduced by Weeks Roses, Scentimental was hybridized by Tom Carruth. The rose was created from a combination of Playboy and Peppermint Twist.
