Mardi Gras RoseColorful Floribunda Roses
The Mardi Gras Rose is a most colorful blend of orange, pink and yellow, on a vigorous growing bush. Ovoid, pointed buds of apricot orange, slowly open to bright pink and yellow blend blooms with a yellow base. These are cluster-flowered roses that bloom their hearts out! This rose was introduced in 2008, and in the same year won top honors by the All American Rose Selection judges. They liked its unique colors, with incredible bloom production.

As colorful as a costume in a mardi-Gras, these roses will steal the show! The color of the petals deepen with age, on a very disease resistant bush. The double flowers open flat, and have a slight fragrance. The bush is upright growing, in a columnar effect. Flowers are borne in clusters on 16-20" stems (perfect for cutting). They are long lasting both in the garden, and in the vase. These Floribunda roses have gotten great reviews from those who have grown it. They can't say enough about the colorful flowers, the hardiness of the bush, (even under adverse conditions), and the magnitude of the blooms produced! This rose will add lots of color in the garden, in mixed borders, and are wonderful used for hedges.
