The Blue Moon rose is a real showstopper, famous for its unusual and beautiful lilac-lavender colored blooms. The flowers are large, classically shaped, and have an incredibly strong, sweet old-rose fragrance that you can smell from feet away. It's a repeat-flowering variety, meaning it doesn't just bloom once in summer – it'll keep producing flowers in flushes from early summer right through into autumn, giving you months of color and scent. This listing is for a 'bare root' rose, which means it's supplied dormant (in winter/early spring) with no soil around its roots. This is a very natural and economical way to buy roses. Once planted, it establishes quickly and develops a strong root system. It's a hardy shrub rose, great for planting in mixed borders, as a specimen, or even in a large pot. The long stems also make it excellent for cutting and bringing the gorgeous blooms indoors. A must-have for rose lovers who want something a bit different and wonderfully fragrant.
