Fragrant Plum is a magnificent hybrid tea rose that is a true classic in any garden. It’s best known for its stunning, large flowers in a unique shade of rich lavender-pink that are held on long, sturdy stems. As its name suggests, the real star of the show is its incredibly potent fragrance—a complex and intoxicating blend of citrus, plum, and spice that makes it a must-have for any scent lover. Its vigorous, upright growth habit and beautiful blooms make it a favourite for both garden beds and arrangements.
General Care Tips:
- Sunlight: This rose thrives in full sun, requiring at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight each day to produce its best flowers and fragrance.
- Soil and Watering: Plant in well-drained, rich soil. Water deeply and regularly, especially during dry periods, to keep the soil consistently moist. Watering at the base of the plant is recommended to keep the foliage dry and help prevent diseases.
- Usage: A fantastic choice for a fragrant garden or as a stunning focal point in a mixed border. Its long stems and exceptional fragrance make it one of the best roses for cutting and bringing indoors to enjoy in a vase.
