'Summer Honey' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

'Prairie Gold' was the working name for this rose - it was released as 'Summer Honey'.

Here in central Florida we have had many weeks of above average rainfall with high humidity. Yet this variety is very clean, showing no signs of disease.

I'm going to guess that 57R51 is (Fandango (hybrid tea, Swim, 1950) × Florence Mary Morse). This is just my wild guess. Its too bad Summer Honey did so poorly here. I bet its better suited in a less humid, colder climate.

My general feeling =

Golden Showers + Black Spot + Mildew = Summer Honey.

The pros: It tried to grow while everything was dormant, including through the snow. The yellow is really pretty and airy. Good vigor.

The cons: Other than disease... blooms whiten within 1 day flat and the class should be more like short climber or something. Golden Wings is a large shrub, but this is not. It wants to warp and bend everywhere, lol.
