Good vigor, good productivity, terrible Thrips.

One of my very favorite roses. Fabulous fragrance. Happy to report no thrips here. In fact, she's been ridiculously healthy for the 8 years I've had her. Worst thing I can say about Betty is that she has wicked thorns.

Here she is with Dick Clark in the foreground. In this photo the pink is a little cooler than in person. Face to face, Betty is a warm, very pale pink.

Betty White is my favorite rose. I grow all of mine in pots. Great productivity, huge blooms, lovely fragrance, very stuffed. I spend a lot of time staring at the beauty of the blooms.
