Arctic Blue™ Tree Rose

An excellent addition to any landscape or flower bed, Arctic Blue™ is a beautiful Floribunda type that bears fully double, fragrant, lavender-pink blooms that feature a creamy white reverse, giving them an elegant Victorian look and feel. This profusion of uniquely colored flowers sits against a background of large, dark leaves that make the blooms even more pronounced in the landscape. Arctic Blue is drought tolerant and exhibits impressive performance in the garden, as well as an outstanding resistance to disease. Butterflies and other pollinators love this rose, both for its scent and color. An ideal variety for cutting gardens and borders, or as a privacy screen when planted in a group. The 4-5' height makes Arctic Blue the perfect choice for surrounding a secret garden in the backyard. Bred by Christian Bedard. Rosa cv. 'WEKblufytirar' PPAF What Is a Tree Rose? Unlike traditional shrub roses that grow from the base up, tree roses—also known as grafted standard roses—are specially cultivated by grafting a rose variety onto a sturdy, 2–3-foot tall trunk of rose rootstock. This horticultural technique allows favorite floribunda, grandiflora, hybrid tea, or even climbing rose varieties to take on an elegant tree-like form. The result is a dramatic garden feature: a vertical accent that elevates lush, colorful blooms to near eye level. Tree roses offer a refined structure and bring added dimension to flower beds, borders, and containers alike.
