Description

If you're looking for a shrub rose that's covered in flowers for most of the summer—and is almost as gorgeous during the times when it's not—consider this sister to Violet's Pride™, one of the finest rose hybrids. Sweet Madame Blue yields clusters of full-looking blooms that release a moderate fragrance that is both sweet and spicy. The foliage and perfectly rounded habit add further to this rose's appeal, particularly when it is not in bloom. Offers long-lasting colors and very strong resistance to several major rose diseases. Warmer zones tend to yield larger floribundas. Hybridized in 2008, this rose is being released only now after more than a decade of trials. Rosa 'WEKwibscryper' PP34232What Is a Tree Rose?Unlike traditional shrub roses that grow from the base up, tree roses—also known as grafted standard roses—are specially cultivated by grafting a rose variety onto a sturdy, 2–3-foot tall trunk of rose rootstock. This horticultural technique allows favorite floribunda, grandiflora, hybrid tea, or even climbing rose varieties to take on an elegant tree-like form. The result is a dramatic garden feature: a vertical accent that elevates lush, colorful blooms to near eye level. Tree roses offer a refined structure and bring added dimension to flower beds, borders, and containers alike.
