Grafted on Rosa Multiflora #1 Grade Bare-Root Rose
Queen of Sweden®
'AUStiger'
Celebrated for its pleasing formality and upward-facing blooms, this Austin rose adapts beautifully to partial shade and full sun. Queen of Sweden® unfurls medium to large, deeply cupped flowers that transition from soft-apricot pink to pure soft pink, releasing a moderate fragrance of sweet myrrh and subtle fruit. Exceptionally winter hardy, it is ideal for beds and statement plantings. Named to commemorate the 350th anniversary of the Treaty of Friendship and Commerce between Queen Christina of Sweden and Oliver Cromwell of Great Britain in 1654.
