                      Good afternoon @Logan my friend please bear in mind that some growers have different opinions ,but on saying that my Arthur Bell rose has proved disease resistant:smile:

                      A large flowering Floribunda rose. Large golden yellow blooms are produced in clusters throughout the flowering season. Flowering starts very early in the season into the autumn. These fade to a creamy colour with age. The fragrance of this variety is rarely matched by any other floribunda variety. Dark green, leathery foliage. Good disease resistance.
