You’ll love the large size and high centers of these perfect flowers, each a stunning yellow and brushed with pink. The overall shape of the rose bush is nicely rounded, and packed with glossy green leaves. True to its name, this rose offers an incredible fragrance, too. Sheila’s Perfume offers the best flower color and size when cool, so keep this one out of the hot afternoon sun. However, Fortuniana rootstock make this a happy southern rose.
