The aptly named Sweet Fragrance Rose really does smell delicious. As a hybrid tea rose, from late spring it produces ongoing clusters of apricot blooms that mature to a pink shade with age. The Sweet Fragrance Rose develops a classic hybrid tea form of erect, strong stems and green foliage. With great disease resistance, this rose is easy to care for and will be a joy to grow wherever it is planted.
The blooms of the Sweet Fragrance Rose are sweetly scented and should be enjoyed whether in the garden or when used as a cut flower for a vase. With a mature height of 2 to 4 feet, this rose is ideal for growing as a specimen or en masse in a border. This Sweet Fragrance Rose can also be grown on a patio or deck in a large container.
Sweet Fragrance Rose Care
As with all roses, the Sweet Fragrance Rose prefers to be grown in fertile and free-draining soil; if possible, enrich the soil with some well-rotted manure prior to planting. To encourage its apricot flowers to repeat bloom, it should be placed in a spot where it will receive as much sun as possible. Regular watering is necessary after planting and until it has become established. As a hungry plant, a specific rose fertilizer can be applied during the growing season to help prevent nutrient deficiencies and give it all it needs to thrive.
As the flowers fade, they should be deadheaded to encourage new buds to appear. Annual pruning should be performed in late winter or early spring when the plant is dormant. To prune this rose, remove any crossing, damaged or diseased branches and then shorten the remaining framework by up to a half, making a cut just above a bud. When pruning a rose, use sanitized and sharp tools to keep wounds small and disease-free.
Sweet Fragrance Rose Spacing
When mature, the Sweet Fragrance Rose can reach a height of 2-4 feet by 2-3 feet wide. If planting this stunning rose out in a group for maximum effect, it can be spaced at a distance of around 3 feet.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
