Rose - Love Affair

Common Name:
Rose 'Love Affair'

Description:
Rose 'Love Affair' is a graceful and romantic floribunda rose bred by Kordes, admired for its beautiful rosette-shaped blooms in soft swirls of pink and apricot, occasionally touched with pale cream or a light reverse. The flowers are full and elegant, often forming in clusters with up to 15 buds per stem, and are lightly to moderately fragrant with a sweet, pleasant scent. This rose flowers repeatedly from late spring through to autumn, making it an excellent choice for gardeners seeking a long-season performer. It forms a neat, bushy shrub with glossy mid-green foliage and strong, upright stems. Highly resistant to common rose diseases, 'Love Affair' is ideal for Melbourne gardens, thriving in both garden beds and large pots, and perfect for adding romantic charm to cottage-style or formal designs.
