More About Winter Sun™ Eleganza®

Winter Sun™ Eleganza® opens from high-centered, medium yellow buds borne mostly solitary, revealing large, high-centered blooms in warm yellow. As the double flowers mature, they transition through a bulbous-centered stage before settling into shallow cups with ruffled petals, their colour softening to butter yellow over time. Lightly fragrant with citrus notes layered with fruit and tea, these long-lasting blooms bring both luminous colour and gentle perfume to the garden.
Growing Details

Winter Sun™ Eleganza® forms an upright, bushy shrub reaching 4' × 3', thriving in CA Zones 6+ | USDA 5+ and beyond. Clad in medium green foliage with a glossy finish, this disease-resistant, continuous blooming hybrid tea produces long-lasting blooms throughout the season. Ideal for statement plantings and beds where its luminous yellow blooms can be appreciated.
