More information

Marco Polo is a hybrid tea rose — tall, vigorous, disease-resistant, with a strong fragrance. Flowers are golden-yellow and retain their color through full bloom. Blooms have a classic goblet form, with petals that open slowly. Double blooms usually appear singly, sometimes two or three, on long, erect stems, suitable for cutting. Rain-resistant. The foliage is disease-resistant, glossy, and provides a backdrop for the flowers.

The variety is recommended for zone 7.
