More information
International Herald Tribune is a shrub suited to small gardens, mixed borders, and containers. Its flowers are cup-shaped, bright purple, with a white center and numerous white streaks. The combination of purple petals, a white central spot, and a cup-shaped form defines the bloom’s appearance. These traits serve to identify the variety. The semi-marginal flowers with pale yellow stamens are borne in clusters of 5–25 on a compact bush whose habit differs from polyantha roses.
