Purple Roses – Half Standard
A very fragrant and very rare tea rose. Its blooms have one of the deepest purples on the market.
The flowers are large in size and rich in velvety colour. They appear from summer to autumn and contrast beautifully against the plant’s blueish-green leaves and stems. Sold as a “Half Standard” size, this means the rose will have a bare stem/trunk of roughly 50 – 80cm between the ground and the first branches. From there it will grow outwards into an dense bush-shape.
Roses are grown for their breathtaking beauty. It is genuinely poetic and artistic to watch a rosebud slowly open and bloom in your own garden. And with blooms that come in every colour of the rainbow, you’re certain to find a rose that matches your garden’s style and palette. Second only to their beauty is their scent, which varies from plant to plant, but can bring a new level of sensory interest to you garden.
