Rose - Phoenix

Common Name:
Rose 'Phoenix'

Description:
Rose 'Phoenix' is a modern floribunda rose introduced in 2018, admired for its vibrant apricot-orange blooms and excellent garden performance. The flowers are medium-sized, cupped, and borne in small clusters, standing out against the dark, glossy green foliage. Its colour is rich and consistent, often intensifying in cooler weather, giving long-lasting appeal throughout the growing season. This compact, bushy rose flowers repeatedly from late spring through to late autumn and thrives in a variety of settings—from containers and small garden beds to mass plantings in larger spaces. While it is not known for a strong fragrance, its striking appearance and high resistance to disease make it a reliable and rewarding choice for Melbourne gardens.
