Sugar Plum Hybrid Tea Rose

A child of Gemini and Moon Shadow, Sugar Plum is a hybrid tea rose that was hybridized by Dr. Keith Zary for Jackson and Perkins. This is an unusual rose. The 3- to 4-inch double blooms not only have a fantastic flower form and an exceptional color—rich lavender splashed with bits of pink and purple—but also have a rare fragrance—strong sweet pea. They repeat quickly throughout the season and have all the attributes of a perfect cut flower: fantastic form and color, lovely fragrance, and sturdy 14- to 18-inch stems—Sweet!

A tall bush, Sugar Plum works well in single plantings as well as in mixed beds and borders.

Give this rose a chance and its quirky charms are sure to win you over.

NOTE: Tree and patio roses are hardy to Zone 6 regardless of the rose variety grafted to their tops.
