The captivating color journey of Melody Parfumée™ begins in deep plum and softens to cool mauve, all while maintaining a lighter reverse. This award-winning grandiflora bears very large, richly hued blooms that release an exquisite fragrance blending old rose, ripe fig, and fresh grapefruit. A multiple fragrance award-winner, it’s ideal for statement plantings and beds where its color-shifting beauty can be fully admired.

More About Melody Parfumée™

Melody Parfumée™ opens from high-centered, pink-purple buds in clusters, revealing very large, high-centered blooms in deep purple with a lighter reverse. As the double flowers mature, they transition into cupped forms with gently reflexed petals, their colour aging to cool dusty mauve and silver tones. Very fragrant with a rich perfume of old rose layered with sweet notes of ripe fig and fresh grapefruit, these blooms bring both shifting colour and exceptional scent to the garden.
Growing Details

Melody Parfumée™ forms an upright, bushy shrub reaching 5' × 4', thriving in CA Zones 6+ | USDA 5+. Clad in dark green foliage with a semi-glossy finish, this continuous blooming grandiflora shows susceptibility to fungal disease in some growing areas. Ideal for statement plantings and beds where its colour-shifting, fragrant blooms can create dramatic displays.
