·        So scrumptious in color, it looks good enough to eat…and you certainly can if you watch out for the thorns.  But it may not be the sticky sweet you’d expect for the delectable caramel color.

·        Buttery-rich coppery buds open into clusters of fragrant caramel-orange beauties held tightly against shiny green leaves.

·        It’s lip-smackin’ for the landscape and certain to delight on the very first flower.
