'Robert Clements' rose Description

My HMF:

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Breeder's notes:

Comments from John Clements:

I have dedicated this beautiful rose for my Uncle Robert Clements, with whom I shared a mutual love of roses for more than 40 years. He is in his 80's living in Texas and still growing roses. Now to the rose. Long pointed buds open to classically shaped blooms, that have an artistic feel to their color. Rich deep apricot-blush, overlayed with orange-red almost coppery toward the edge of the petals. The striking blooms are produced in good numbers on a wall foliaged shrub, with rich bright-green, glossy leaves. Continuous bloom, very disease resistant, and hardy 5-10.

Patents:

Patent status unknown (to HelpMeFind).
