Sunline.....

p62.  Doug Grant, Final Analysis For 2015-2016.  
Sunline​ Breeders Code: Somwarmag​  Breeder: Somerfield 2010 Type: Hybrid Tea​  Plants: 76​   Parentage: Maggie Barry x Warm Wishes​  Reports: 49​  Height Medium to Tall​  Garden: 6.4​  Exhibition: 5.4​  Health: 6.5 (good)​  Fragrance: 3.2 (some). The plant has an attractive bloom with a striking colour but unfortunately it fades quickly and can burn in the sun. The blooms are similar to 'Solitaire' but smaller in size. It is a good garden rose with good health but some blackspot disease.
