Blue Skies

An unusual lobelia blue color, this Hybrid Tea is a lovely rose with a fragrant scent. Beautiful, long pointed buds open into eye-catching 4-5” blooms with 32-40 lavender petals which deepen with age. She is an upright, continual blooming, bushy plant with serrated leaves that start red-bronze and finish a matte-green. Blue Skies is a Griffith Buck rose of very complex breeding ancestry and is winter hardy in the midwest without protection.
