City of Goulburn

I could not resist trying to capture a half decent photo of this most beautiful rose.
Since Goulburn became the City of Roses a rose has been named ‘City of Goulburn’ rose. It is a warm apricot pink with scallop-edged petals. The rose has proved to be a very hardy and vigorous growing floribunda type which thrives in Goulburn’s inland climate and which has above average resistance to disease.

What a lovely unusual coloured rose. Beautiful.

A lovely colour - not the bright oranges or yellows but decorous! I think you might be proud of this rose to show it so beautifully!
