Abstract
SAVacook is a miniature rose which can be grown quite satisfactorily in a greenhouse or as a hardy, garden perennial. It blooms continually throughout the growing season with buds and flowers of an apricot-yellow blend. Blooms are most often born in clusters but also singly, making them good for cut flowers. The plant, itself, grows 18 to 24 inches tall in a nice mounded form making it ideal as either a specimen plant or in a border. This variety does need winter protection in severe climates.
