        It’s not just gentlemen that prefer blondes, everyone loves this shapely
        Hybrid Tea named to honor an American legend. The extraordinarily
        feminine creamy apricot color holds through from the long pointed
        buds to the big buxom open blooms. A gown of deep green leaves
        graces the cutting length stems. Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend,
        but the super vase life and perfect flower form on this gem-of-a-rose
        will demand the devotion of every exhibitor. The best apricot for
        hot weather.
