Belinda’s Dream
Belinda’s Dream is a disease tolerant shrub with gorgeous flowers. Used as a specimen plant, a hedge or even in a large pot, this rose has the impact and beauty of all hybrid teas, but is more disease and soil tolerant. It was the first rose to be designated Earth-Kind® by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service. The large, very double pink blossoms come in large clusters from spring until frost.
Winter Sun A newly developed hybrid tea by Kordes, this is a creamy yellow that grows to be @3-4 feet. It is cold hardy, disease resistant and has a repeat double bloom.
Pink Enchantment A hybrid tea developed in 2012, this a creamy pink hybrid tea. It is fairly compact with medium green foliage. It is cold hardy and disease resistant. It is a double bloomer and repeats.
Duchesse de Brabant As an alternate, or just a fun rose to try, this is a lovely old tea rose. It has very full and fragrant blossoms. The foliage is apple green. The plant is relatively small for an old tea rose. Kordes Roses Test Collection

Rainbow’s End® These bright colors make a pot o‘ gold look dull. Its bushy compact plant displays lots of pointed buds and large shapely blooms atop glossy green leaves. One of the best! Proven consistent performer.
Starla A luminous member of the Miniature family. But she’s not little or fragile. In fact, Starla is one of our more robust Minis. Big pointed buds come atop an upright vigorous plant. Long cutting stems are clothed with deep green leaves. Best form with a little heat.
You’re the One™ Here’s a blue-ribbon grabber that goes great guns in the garden, too. Perfectly miniature-ized Hybrid Tea shaped buds of cream open very formally with several blushing shades of pink. But beyond the show table, this baby will knock ‘em dead in the landscape with a bushy flowerful plant you can tuck into smaller spaces to create a riot of color. Loads of deep glossy green leaves provide the perfect background for the ever-changing show of plentiful pinkness.
Zephirine Drouhin One of the most famous of the romantic Bourbon roses, Zephirine has maintained her popularity for a number of reasons. Her non-fading, cerise pink, old-fashioned blooms have exquisite fragrance reminiscent of raspberries

Blanc Double de Coubert A beloved member of the Rugosa species because of the nearly continual production of pure white large double flowers saturated with fragrance. Its tidy habit makes it easier to luck into a modern landscape than most of the other family members. But it’s still a Rugosa— tough, hardy & naturally disease resistant. Red hips ripen in the fall. Disease resistant & hardy. Avoid chemical sprays.
Secret You can’t keep this Secret secret because the sweet fragrance will give it away. An AARS winner with perfume worth bragging about. But it’s not all just for the nose, your eyes will love the loads of well-formed flowers whose soft colors are set off by mahogany-red new foliage.
Everyone will appreciate this easy-to-grow prolific plant. Always attractive & super fragrant. Best size when cool.
Licorice Don’t let the pastel hues fool you. This quiet color packs a powerful punch of unparalleled perfume…a sweet licorice & lemon blossom aroma that will make you tingle with delight. A bouquet-making machine-of-a-plant with wonderfully formed buds that open into big wavy wonders set atop sturdy stems clothed with dark green leaves. Bushy & beautifully branched, the plant looks as good in the garden as the flowers do in a vase. More yellow when cool…more white when warm. 2013 Rose Collection for Members Ordering information available through individual Member Club Rose Chairman Order deadline is Oct. 15, 2012
