1996 Winner - St. Patrick
 The luck of the Irish blesses the 5-inch flowers of St. Patrick, a rose distinguished by its unique color. Chartreuse buds unfurl slowly (unusual for yellow roses) to reveal a yellow gold flower. As the temperature rises, St. Patrick becomes tinged with shades of green.
This vigorous hybrid tea has long, upright stems graced with grey green foliage and is perfect for indoor bouquets. Introduced by Weeks Roses, St. Patrick was hybridized by Frank Strickland, one of the few amateurs ever to win the AARS award. The rose is an offspring of Brandy and Gold Medal.
