Gemini, A Great Hybrid Tea Rose for the High Desert
Gemini is probably my favorite hybrid tea rose to grow here in the high desert of the Southwest, Albuquerque. As beautiful as it is, it is equally tough. It tolerates the summer heat. Mine was not damaged by the extreme cold of February of 2011. The colors are wonderful. The form is close to perfect in almost every bloom.

Your Gemini is so beautiful! Ours has become Dr. Huey.
Hi, Tim. Thanks! This is another one of those luck kind of things. I got it and planted it before I knew much about roses, and I think I got it the first year it came out. It is planted on the south side of the house, so it gets some protection in winter. It seems to tolerate the heat of summer with no problems at all. Luck is wonderful! 🙂
