Introduced in 1992, this gorgeous shrub rose was developed by Dr. Robert Basye, a mathematics professor at Texas A&M University, and named after the daughter of one of his friends. Belinda's Dream is disease tolerant and has gorgeous flowers. This rose is used as a specimen plant, a hedge, or even in a large pot. This rose has the impact and beauty of a modern hybrid tea but is much more disease and soil-tolerant.
It was the first rose designated Earth-Kind® by the Texas AgriLife Extension Service. The double pink blossoms come in large clusters from spring until frost. Bred in Texas to withstand hot temperatures, it does well in temperate climates. It may have some black spots in cool, damp weather, but the disease will not affect its vigor and blooming.
Light pruning improves the appearance and blooming frequency.
