Rose - Graham Ross

Common Name:
Rose 'Graham Ross'

Description:
Rose 'Graham Ross' is a modern floribunda rose named after the renowned Australian horticulturist, Graham Ross. This variety is known for its elegant, soft apricot to creamy peach blooms that appear in generous clusters across the growing season. Its flowers are lightly fragrant and held against healthy, dark green foliage that remains attractive throughout the year. It’s a compact, bushy rose ideal for garden borders, rose beds, or feature pots, offering reliable repeat flowering from spring through to autumn. Bred for Australian conditions, 'Graham Ross' demonstrates strong disease resistance and thrives in full sun with well-drained soil. With minimal maintenance beyond regular feeding and pruning, this rose rewards gardeners with continuous colour and a tidy, formal habit, making it suitable for both informal cottage gardens and structured planting schemes.
