Rose - For Your Eyes Only

Common Name:
For Your Eyes Only Rose

Description:
For Your Eyes Only is a standout floribunda rose celebrated for its semi-single blooms featuring soft pink to peach petals with a dramatic dark magenta eye at the centre. A result of modern Persica hybrid breeding, this rose offers a tropical, exotic flair with flowers that appear continuously from late spring into autumn. It has a bushy, compact growth habit, making it ideal for smaller gardens, borders, or container planting. In Melbourne, it performs best in full sun with well-drained soil and benefits from regular feeding to encourage repeat flowering. This variety is also noted for its strong resilience against common rose diseases such as black spot and mildew, making it an excellent low-maintenance choice for both beginner and experienced gardeners. The blooms attract bees and other beneficial pollinators, adding ecological value to its ornamental appeal.
