Chihuly Rose
The Rose 'Chihuly Floribunda', Rosa sp. 'WEKscemala', with an ever-changing array of flashy colors, was named in honor of America’s famous glass artisan, Dale Chihuly.
As the sun hits the opening petals, the flowers show off their spectacular colors of subtly-striped apricot yellow to dazzling orange and deep red. The 'Chihuly Floribunda' rose produces a remarkable display against the deep dark green leaves and mahogany-red new growth. This rose flower has a mild, tea fragrance and displays 17 to 25 petals with a diameter of 4 inches.
With continuous flowering throughout the season, it is best to use this plant for beds and borders, cut flower, or garden. Remove spent blooms to encourage re-bloom. In the spring remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third.
