Tropical Lightning                 ™
                      Climber • cv. ORAlodsem • Pat.#28,055

        The tropical warmth comes in the form of rich sunset-like orange while
        the dazzling lightning is generated by bright cream stipes. The effect is
        accentuated by a layer of purple smoke creating a burnt orange combo,
        perfect for a stormy sky! Each perfectly shaped bud & flower will hold
        that CRAZY novel color for days & the prolific and vigorous plant,
        which reaches mature size & full display in 3 years, will only slow
        down the flowering as it transitions into winter. If the extraordinary
        bloom colors were not enough, Tropical Lightning presents some of the
        glossiest leaves of all roses contrasted by the burgundy red new shoots!
