A white sail
This is the 'Full Sail' hybrid tea rose. A fragrant rose, first cultivated in Auckland, New Zealand, by Sam McGredy.
The McGredy family are world famous rose growers who came to New Zealand, from Ireland, in 1974, to escape death threats from the IRA (Irish Republican Army) during a time of terrible violence in Ireland.
One of Sam McGredy's most well known roses, developed in Auckland, New Zealand, is 'Full Sail'. Three other of his world renowned roses include 'Sexy Rexy', 'Olympiad' and 'Handel'.

'Full Sail' is a popular hybrid tea-rose because of its perfectly formed, pure white blooms on long, strong stems with a most sweet honeysuckle and lemon fragrance.
