Roses


  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.

'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.
