Sun Flare™ Potted Rose Bush
Rosa ‘JACjem’ Sun Flare™
Sun Flare™ is a floribunda rose bred by William A. Warriner and introduced in the U.S. by Jackson & Perkins in 1981. Its clusters of vivid lemon-yellow blooms glow like sunlight in the garden and hold their brilliance even in summer heat. Each flower carries a soft licorice fragrance and arrives in generous flushes from spring through fall. With its compact, bushy habit and glossy foliage, Sun Flare™ is as dependable as it is dazzling—an award-winning performer that brightens borders and beds with lasting color.
