Applejack
(Buck, 1973) – clear pink. One of the best Buck roses for sheer ease of growth and garden pleasure.
The semi-double flowers have a light clove fragrance but it is the apple scented foliage that is the real star. This tall
mounding shrub looks like a wild European rose but has the ability to repeat bloom. As an added bonus the foliage
turns light yellow in the fall. Speaking of foliage, the leaves are exceptionally resistant to disease making the rose
suitable for no spray gardens. Hardy to zone 4. Recommended by John in Minnesota.
