| Cinco de Mayo
Cinco de Mayo brings a fiesta of flowers to every garden.
Mysteriously colored and deliriously novel, it’s an
indescribable blending of smoked lavender and rusty red-orange.
This festive rose may be difficult to describe, but you’ll love
the endless bounty of multi-colored clusters sitting amongst
clean, glossy green foliage and dark red new growth. The
flowers, which hold well and are fast to repeat, radiate the
smell of fresh-cut golden apples. As an AARS Winner, this
floribunda has fantastic disease resistance and has performed
exceptionally well across the country with little-to-no care. As
the offspring of the 2006 AARS award-winning Julia Child rose,
Cinco de Mayo enlivens any garden, and it’s clean, round habit
is ideal for use as a hedge or in a border with mixed
perennials.
