Description / Rosa Sweet Intoxication
Bred by renowned hybridizer Dr. Keith Zary and introduced by Jackson & Perkins in 2010, this rose offers strong fragrance, fantastic color, and wonderful versatility.
With parents like Melody Parfumee and Perfume Perfection, Sweet Intoxication was destined to be wildly fragrant. Deliciously pervasive, the strong scent resembles cloves, with a slight citrus note, and begins the moment the buds start to open, lasting to the finish.
Borne in big clusters, the gorgeous double blooms on this free-flowering floribunda are large, high centered, and packed with 30 to 35 deep magenta petals that have a light lavender reverse.
The bush is compact and well-branched with a columnar, upright habit. Use it in mixed beds, in containers, in the sunny border, and even as a hedge. And naturally, you will want one of these deliciously aromatic roses in your cutting garden, especially as one little snip can get you an entire bouquet full of non-stop fragrance and color to enjoy inside.
Plant this floribunda in rich, well-drained soil receiving full sun. Remove spent flowers to encourage rebloom. Spring pruning is recommended. Old and dead wood should be removed and canes that cross need to be cut back. Gardeners in warmer climates should cut back the remaining canes by about one-third, while those in colder areas will probably want to prune a little more than that.
NOTE: Tree and patio roses are hardy to Zone 6 regardless of the rose variety grafted to their tops.
