I'm getting my Berolina HT!

It is interesting how things have a way of working out sometimes. Recently I asked about hardy yellow hybrid teas on this forum and was given several good suggestions. Berolina was one of those suggested, by Kate (Dublinbay). It is a variety I had already considered earlier, but didn't order it at that time. This morning Palatine called me to let me know the Milestone I had ordered would not be available and asked me what I wanted as a substitute, I asked her about a good yellow and I remembered they had Berolina. She was hoping I would choose that one. I wasn't going to buy another yellow rose this year, because I have already bought more roses than I should have, I'm just glad it worked out the way it did. It's a Kordes rose, so hopefully it will be a good one, like most of them are for me.

Thank you, Seil.

Good reliable yellow HT you're getting there, sara. Just remember it is not a big lush showy golden-yellow like Gina Lollabrigida or Henry Fonda. It is a more subdued mild yellow and not always the largest bloom in the garden. It is also (so far at least--mine is still "new") quite bs-resistant, fragrant, and seems to have a good re-bloom rate. A bit taller than most of my other HTs, but they tend to be the shorter ones anyway.

Overall, a charming yellow.

Do let us know how she does in your garden.

Kate

Thank you Kate. Yes I do realize it's not one of the big showy yellows, I'm looking for dependability and it sounds promising. I'll keep you posted.
