Celebration Floribunda Rose
Rosa Rhapsody in Blue
Large, loosely double, deep purple blooms which possess a delicious, fruity-floral scent and gently darken to slate-blue as they mature. This is a vigorous, easy-to-grow variety with a bushy, upright habit and healthy, finely-toothed, glossy bright green leaves. The intensely perfumed blooms appear repeatedly in large clusters from July to September, making it perfect for growing near an entrance, path or window where its fabulous fragrance can be fully appreciated. Winner of Rose of the Year Award in 2003, this striking Floribunda is the closest the world has seen to a blue rose.
