Mulberry Wine

Rose trials, such as the New Zealand Rose Society International Trials in Palmerston North, are a great place to see the latest trends in roses.

This month we feature the overall winner from the most recently concluded trial presented last November. ‘Mulberry Wine’ was a standout winner for breeder Rob Somerfield. 

Masses of fragrant purple cerise blooms cover the medium growing, slightly spreading plant. Very healthy with rich glossy green foliage.  Grows to 1 metre high.

Available from resellers of Glenavon Roses including Wairere Nurseries
