Breeder's notes:
This rose which is pink with a heart of red, and the flower changing from pink to red over the days, darkening in a most attractive way, but always with the centre darker than the rest of the flower, is very eye-catching. We wanted to give the name Eye Candy but found there already was a rose thus named so we settled for Spot On, which we felt conveyed the idea of this rose, and in English usage means ‘right on’, showing approval.
