    "'Brazen' blooms with a big, wild double flower from two of our best varieties, 'Saffron' and 'Island Queen'. 'Brazen' inherited both color and double form from 'Island Queen,' and a wonderful strong bush along with a bit of extra flower flare from 'Saffron.' The 6-8" blooms are well presented on this strong, well foliated bush that can reach 4-5 feet in a pot, and 6 feet or taller in the ground within a few years. Released from HVH in 2010."
