Floribunda | Ebb Tide

A floribunda rose, the blooms are in small clusters and do not all open at the same time, so a single stem can last for several weeks. The flowers are large, ruffled and in the lovely old-fashioned form. Color is a rich plum/royal purple and the scent is warm clove. One of the best purples!

We recommend using EB Stone Organic Sure Start when planting to promote strong root growth and help ensure the health of the plant, and EB Stone Rose & Flower Planting Mix which is specially blended with roses in mind. We recommend using EB Stone Rose & Flower Food to fertilize your rose during its growing season, spring through fall.

• Prune annually around March.
• Fertilize with an organic rose food in late April and again in July.
• Remove spent flowers frequently and spray as needed with Neem to control aphids, black spot and powdery mildew.
• Purple roses tend to be a bit more susceptible to black spot and powdery mildew, so be vigilant; they are worth the care.
