Betty BoopTM Rose is a spunky floribunda rose with mildly fruity fragrant multi-color blooms on a neat, bushy, 3-5' plant with glossy dark green foliage. New foliage opens a rich dark red. Clusters of semi-double blooms with a petal count of 6-12 gives this rose an old-fashioned rose look in your garden, but the dazzling multi-color blooms add modern excitement to any corner of the landscape. Betty BoopTM Rose blooms continuously from spring to frost in all climates and rarely needs deadheading or pruning. Does not produce hips.
Betty BoopTM Rose Garden Uses and Care:
This sparkling floribunda rose is a carefree continuous bloomer from spring through fall and even past the first few frosts. Use as a medium-sized focal point to anchor a mixed perennial/shrub border, or as a spicy low hedge along a driveway, walkway, or along the top of a retaining wall. Betty Boop Rose lends itself very well to a cottage garden setting. Perfect for patio containers where its electric blooms and pleasing mild fruity fragrance can be appreciated at close hand.
About Floribunda Roses:
Floribunda roses are typically lower maintenance and much more free-blooming than grandifloras or hybrid tea roses. Their unique blooms in clusters at the end of each branch create a non-stop, easy to care for show of color over a long season. Floribundas are usually more compact in form and work well in containers, mixed perennial and shrub borders, and in smaller gardens. They are usually hardy in Zones 4-9 with adequate winter protection such as mulching or hilling around the graft, if present.
