Tango

Tango puts on an exceptional performance of red-orange blooms with decorative, painted, yellow centers and the occasional white rim. This modern Shrub rose was hybridized by Sam McCredy and is one of the best of his “hand painted” roses. The 4″, semi-double flowers have 13-18 petals and bloom in flushes of small clusters throughout the season. Tango is a tall, bushy and nearly thornless Shrub with large, semi-glossy, bronze-green foliage.
