    When Vintage Gardens had a retail outlet in my town, there was a 50-cent table of overstock band roses. Some of my roses came from that table, and Anna Zinkeisen is the best 50-cent rose in my garden. The color of its blooms is the palest of yellows, a calming shade that provides a nice contrast to roses of more vivid colors. It's officially described as a rose that repeats only occasionally, but in my garden it's in bloom for much of the year. The shiny foliage is a dark shade of green, setting off the light yellow blooms superbly.
