Angel Face Bare Root Rose Bush

Rosa ‘Angel Face’ Angel Face (Tree Form)

Angel Face Tree Rose is the grafted tree form of the beloved floribunda introduced in the U.S. by Jackson & Perkins (USA) in 1968. Famous for its ruffled lavender blooms edged in deep violet, each flower carries a strong citrus and spice fragrance. The blooms, about 3–4″ wide with ~30 petals, repeat freely through the season. As a tree rose, Angel Face® offers the same beauty in a dramatic, elevated form that highlights its clusters of flowers at eye level.
