Rosa flor. 'Sweet Madame Blue' (purple) (ENGLISH)

This deciduous shrub has a compact, rounded habit, typically reaching a mature height of 3-4 feet and is perfect for borders or container planting. It thrives in USDA Hardiness Zones 5-9, preferring full sun and moderately fertile, well-draining soil. Its soil requirements include a neutral to slightly acidic pH, performing best with consistent moisture. From late spring to early fall, it produces stunning purple double blooms with a sweet fragrance that attracts pollinators. Though it has limited deer resistance, its vibrant fall foliage brings warm hues to your garden after the blooming season. It does not produce notable fruit, keeping its focus on floral display over fruits. As an elegant addition to gardens looking for a splash of rich, colorful blooms, it’s an excellent pick for both experienced and novice growers.
