Chihuly ~ Rosebud in the rain

This gorgeous rose is named for the famous Pacific Northwest glass artist, Dale Chihuly. What a delightful splash of colour in my garden and the raindrops just added to this vision.

CHIHULY FLORIBUNDA ROSE
In naming a rose to honor America’s famous glass artisan, Dale Chihuly, It had to have impeccable style & an ever-changing array of flashy colors. This rose has it all!
As the sun hits the opening petals, they blush from subtly-striped apricot yellow to dazzling orange & deep red…producing a remarkable display against the deep dark green leaves & mahogany-red new growth.

Petal count: Around 25
