ROSES FOR FLORIDA

Rosa 'Fairy Queen' PPAF

'Fairy Queen', a sport of 'The Fairy', is a beautiful spreading miniature rose. It attains a height of 2' -3' and sets abundant clusters of bead-like buds that open to dark pink to red, apple-scented blooms. This rose is tolerant of poorer soils and can cope with some shade. Zones 6-10.

Rosa Our Lady of Guadalupe™ PPAF

Tirelessly Reblooming, Great Disease and Pest Resistance

Ideal for novice rose growers and seasoned rosarians alike, this floribunda is one of the hardest-working, most productive and attractive cultivars yet. Better bloom strength, disease resistance, fragrance, and even color, it is aa good choice for a large planting as a low hedge or a ribbon of color in the sunny border

Cut all you like; Our Lady of Guadalupe™ will have many, many more where those came from! The first and heaviest bloom is in early season, but this shrub repeats vigorously all season, so it's difficult to catch it out of bloom. Highly fragrant, these blooms have a sweet old-rose aroma.The combination of the soft pink tones and the tea scent is quite old-fashioned, but there is nothing old-fashioned about the vigor and determinatiion to rebloom of 'Our Lady of Guadalupe™'. 3'-4' compact enough for containers, thorny. Zones 6-10.
