Belinda’s Dream is the kind of rose everyone pictures when someone mentions the word “rose”.  The buds are shaped like a tea rose and the blooms are lovely and full with an intoxicating rose fragrance.  If you can have only one rose, Belinda’s dream is a good choice.

Belinda's Dream is easy to grow and has successive flushes of bloom which extend from spring to frost. It forms an upright shrub and looks wonderful with planted perennials at its feet.  This rose is an outstanding performer in almost any soil type, even highly alkaline clays, and possesses excellent wind, heat and drought tolerance for a rose.

Belinda’s Dream has been named a Texas Superstar by Texas A&M University.
