'Coretta Scott KIng' Rose. Coretta Scott King, the wife of Martin Luther King, Jr., was a strong and dynamic woman who was known for her grace and poise. Her namesake rose is just like her - strong, dynamic, graceful and poised. The gorgeous Coretta Scott King rose unfurls from tight buds to showcase a creamy white base that ignites at the edges with an almost indescribable coral-orange-pink-blush. It practically glows in the garden. Absolutely breathtaking Rose.
