More information

Lavender Jewel is a miniature rose of lilac colour, appropriate for garden planting. It flowers almost without pause, and combines with other pastel-coloured plants. The blooms are typically produced in clusters (3–7 per cluster), and at times appear singly. Initially the form is that of a hybrid tea rose; when fully open it resembles a miniature floribunda. The colour is pure lavender with lilac and purple shades. After opening, the blooms begin to fade at the edges to a very pale violet. The Lavender Jewel bush is strong, neat, and compact in cold climates, and markedly more spreading under hot conditions. The leaves are generally resistant to disease.

The pointed buds open into goblet-shaped flowers about 3 cm in diameter, lightly scented, pure lavender in colour, with 35–40 petals. Gradually the flowers become flat. Sometimes the petal edges turn magenta. The foliage is dark green; the bush is compact, branched, 25–40 cm tall.
