Violet's Pride is useful when the goal is steady garden colour rather than a single show bloom. Look at its flower tone, fragrance, and rebloom pattern as one overall border effect.
Cultivar overview
Violet's Pride is a floribunda rose from Weeks. Introduced in 2017, it is best understood through its lavender with a magenta heart colour, strong scent profile, and repeat bloom habit. Its strong fragrance is one of the main reasons to consider it for a spot close to people. Repeat flowering makes it easier to plan for more than one moment of interest during the season.
Garden character and use
As a floribunda, it is useful where the goal is steady garden colour and a generous flowering effect rather than one isolated specimen bloom. At about 4 ft by 3 ft, it needs a position where mature growth will not feel crowded. Its lavender with a magenta heart colour gives it a cooler, more unusual colour note for collectors comparing distinctive rose tones.
Bloom, fragrance, and care notes
Violet's Pride is strongest for gardeners who care about both scent and repeat bloom. With petal count noted as 40, the bloom has a useful clue to fullness and shape. Give it good airflow, steady watering, and a sunny position so the fragrance and flower form have the best chance to show well.
