The Rose Trumpeter produces brilliant orange red blossoms that are lightly ruffled and bloom on a low rounded bush. This easy flowering Floribunda is heavily branched which makes it an ideal hedging rose or a great specimen by itself. The foliage is a glossy medium green color and is healthy and strong. The fragrance is light but wonderfully subtle. The blooms are slightly cupped and are a little over 3 inches across and this plant is a quick rebloomer.

Good landscape rose. Good for mass plantings, hedges and containers. Will not fade in color until bloom drops.
