Rose - Lionheart

Common Name:
Lionheart Rose

Description:
The Lionheart Rose (Rosa ‘Lionheart’) is a striking floribunda rose, admired for its bold, bi-coloured blooms, featuring rich golden yellow petals with deep red edges. This repeat-flowering variety provides an eye-catching display from spring through autumn, producing clusters of fully double flowers with a light fragrance. With a bushy, upright growth habit and glossy green foliage, Lionheart thrives in Melbourne’s climate, preferring full sun and well-drained soil. It has excellent disease resistance and benefits from regular feeding, watering, and deadheading to encourage continuous flowering. Its dramatic colour contrast and long-lasting blooms make it a standout choice for garden beds, borders, and pots.
