Ebb TideTM Rose is a wonderful hardy, own-root floribunda rose with powerful spicy clove fragrant blooms on a bushy, 3-4' plant with glossy dark green foliage. Fully double blooms with an average petal count of over 35 gives this rose an old-fashioned rose look on a new hardy, disease resistant rose cultivar. Ebb TideTM Rose is one of those roses that gets more impressive year after year as it slowly settles into your garden.

Ebb TideTM Rose Garden Uses and Care:
This outstanding hardy own root floribunda rose is a carefree continuous bloomer throughout the season and past the first few frosts. Use as a medium-sized focal point to anchor a mixed perennial/shrub border, as a magnificent low hedge along a driveway or walkway, or planted in large patio containers to better enjoy the spicy clove fragrance. Try setting off the smoky purple blooms by underplanting with the miniature rose ' Lemondrop ' or with Achillea 'The Pearl', a lovely cut flower Yarrow variety whose blooms resemble Baby's Breath.


Advantages of Own Root Roses:
Own root roses offer many advantages over grafted rose varieties. Own root roses have increased hardiness with no possibility of root stock suckering. Own root roses will always remain true to type and are typically more vigorous growers and usually flower more heavily than grafted varieties. Own root roses are free of the viruses that often ride along with grafted root stock. Own root rose varieties are longer-lived and healthier, whereas many grafted varieties tend to "fizzle" after a few years in the garden. Even after the harshest winters when the rose may be killed to the ground, own root roses will re-sprout true-to-type from the roots.
