Scentimental ™
AARS winner 1997
(cv. WEKplapep) Pat.#10,126
Floribunda - Burgundy-red swirled with creamy white.
You might think stripes are a new-fangled thing. But it is the old rose
heritage that brings the genetic stripping to this spicy scented new-comer.
Each petal is as unique as a snowflake--some more burgundy-splashed-white,
some creamed-swirled-red-all on the same vigorous plant. The old-fashioned
form & fragrance may remind you of its stingy blooming ancestors. Yet the
nearly continuous number of blossoms lets you know there's modern kinfolk in
there, too. Distinctive clean quilted foliage.
Height / Habit: Medium/Rounded
Bloom / Size: Large, double
Petal Count: 25 to 30
Fragrance: Strong sweet spice
Hybridizer: Carruth - 1997
Parentage: Playboy X Peppermint Twist
Comments: Best color & size in moderate temps. Perfect for potpourri.

'Blue Moon'
More lilac-purple than blue, it is still an unusual colour for a rose. Blue
Moon is a Hybrid Tea rose or, as the Royal Horticultural Society prefers to
call it, a large-flowered bush rose. The flowers of this variety are
certainly large, with an unfortunate tendency (shared by many HT roses) to
open into big purple blobs resembling loose cabbages. Beautifully pointy in
bud though.
Blue Moon has an unusual scent to match the colour. I've seen it described
as "a lemon scent", but I must say I disagree. It's a difficult scent to
describe — maybe a bit like bubble gum.
