Rosa 'Apollo', a radiant and structural hybrid tea rose, stands out with its large, double, light yellow to pale lemon-yellow flowers. Their fresh hue maintains its luminosity even in strong sunlight. The thick, well-turbinated petals open from elegant buds to form a regular, well-centered flower, slightly fragrant. Borne on long, robust stems, the flowers hold well in a vase, making it an interesting variety for cutting. Its bushy, upright, and vigorous habit forms a dense, balanced shrub, ideal for sunny borders or to brighten a bed with warm and pastel tones. Prolific and reblooming, it produces several sustained waves of flowering throughout the summer. Its dark green, lustrous, and resistant foliage offers good disease tolerance in rich, deep, well-drained soil. Rosa 'Apollo' brings radiance, consistency, and understated elegance to the garden while attracting pollinating insects.
