Rose - Lioness

Common Name:
Lioness Rose

Description:
The Lioness Rose is a captivating floribunda rose that commands attention with its luxurious, warm-toned blooms and strong, upright growth habit. Displaying large, double flowers in tones of soft apricot, cream, and peach, this variety brings a sense of subtle elegance and strength to any garden. Each flower opens from a classic bud into a full, layered bloom that softens as it matures, creating an ever-changing display of colour. The Lioness Rose blooms in generous flushes from spring through to autumn, thriving in Melbourne’s climate with good sun exposure and free-draining soil. Its glossy, mid-green foliage has strong disease resistance, making it a low-maintenance choice for both beginner and seasoned gardeners. Equally suited to feature planting, rose beds, or large pots, the Lioness Rose combines ornamental beauty with reliable performance and an understated scent that adds to its graceful presence.
