Fun in the Sun™ Bare Root Rose Bush
Fun in the Sun
A bright and cheerful floribunda, Fun in the Sun® bursts into bloom with warm golden-apricot flowers that fade to soft cream as they mature. Each bloom opens in clusters, with a classic cupped shape and around 25–35 petals. Lightly fragrant with a fruit-tea scent, the flowers appear in generous flushes from late spring to fall. Compact and upright in habit, it fits beautifully in small gardens, mass plantings, or cutting borders. Its healthy foliage and easygoing nature make it a favorite in warm, sunny climates.
