Large, 5-inch flowers in coral-orange
Fresh, fruity scent
Eye-catching in bouquets

Here's a rose that has been extremely popular since its introduction more than 50 years ago--and for good reason. Its beautifully formed blooms, with their fruity scent and curled-back outer petals, reach an amazing 5" across, and the iridescent, coral-orange hues of the petals add a tropical vibe to gardens. They are hand selected and professionally trimmed to ensure a spectacular debut in your garden. You're certain to love Tropicana whether it marks your first venture into rose growing or is replacing an underperforming variety.

Fortuniana Rootstock, The Best Option for Southern Regions

Warm-zone gardeners, this changes everything! We're thrilled to now offer Fortuniana rootstock on some of our most popular rose varieties. Prized by rosarians for its superior performance, adaptability and longevity in Southern gardens, Fortuniana rootstock requires more effort for commercial growers to produce, which is also why these roses can be so difficult for home gardeners to find.

Fortuniana rootstock delivers:

20% larger blooms
30% more flowers
Greater vigor and adaptability in the South
Resistance to root knot nematodes
Resistance to crown gall
Success in sandy soils
