Honoring the former First Lady, an enthusiastic rosarian from Rose-loving Texas, Laura Bush offers a splash of stylish color with generous, softly ruffled, cinnamon-orange blooms, bearing a pleasant, fruity fragrance. The classic, but relaxed, free-flowing petals emulate the graceful, but comfortable-in-any-situation demeanor of this popular political ambassador.
The 3-inch blooms spiral open from pointed buds, creating giant clusters of the colorful, ruffled blooms. The wavy petals include orange accents to the mostly cinnamon color, giving the flower a graceful contrast, much like ripening fruit, set against deep dark-green foliage.
Reaching 3 feet high and 2 feet wide, Laura Bush is versatile, perfect for low hedges and containers as well as a variety of beds and borders. Regardless the use, the beautiful cluster of cinnamon-orange blooms will lend beauty and enjoyment to your floral collection.
Laura Bush thrives in well-drained soil and full sun. Cut back dead and old wood and trim canes that cross. Remaining canes should be pruned by about one-third in warmer climates, more is recommended in colder climates.
