If you haven’t opened your landscape to grandifloras, allow Fragrant Plum Rose to show you what you’re missing. Smokey lavender-to-plum tones and marvelous fragrance show that grandifloras aren’t your grandmother’s rose. This is the kind of rose that will keep you up at night as you plan your next bouquet or vase arrangement. Fragrant Plum produces armloads of long, sturdy stems topped with elegant, pointed buds that open into stunning, fragrant flowers. A note on growing–the plum color brightens with some heat, but this rose holds its best form in cooler temperatures–so keep this plum-pretty Grandiflora in a location with afternoon shade.
