Sweet Spirit is just as wonderful as its name suggests – a sweetly aromatic rose with a spirited display of dark foliage and bright blooms. Each cherry red blossom is fully double, very elegantly formed, and holds a strong, sugary scent reminiscent of ripe fruit, with notes of pear and cloves.
This exhilarating variety grows well on its own root and performs beautifully in areas with extreme heat and high humidity. As healthy as it is lovely, this grandiflora is also quite resistant to diseases, like black spot and rust. This lush mounding bush looks great in the landscape even out of bloom, and the fragrant flowers are welcome additions to indoor displays.
