Blue Girl™ Hybrid Tea Rose

Elegant, unusual, and wonderfully fragrant, Blue Girl™ is a classic Hybrid Tea rose treasured for its enchanting silvery lavender blooms and rich rose perfume. Despite its name, this distinctive variety isn't truly blue—instead, its cool lavender, lilac, and mauve coloring creates a sophisticated appearance that makes it a standout among traditional pink, red, and yellow roses.

Blue Girl™ produces large, beautifully formed flowers that open from pointed buds into classic high-centered Hybrid Tea blooms. The petals display luminous shades of silvery lavender and soft lilac, with subtle variations developing according to temperature and growing conditions. Cooler weather can intensify the lavender tones, adding even greater depth to the flowers.

One of Blue Girl™'s most memorable characteristics is its strong, sweet fragrance. Its classic rose perfume makes it an excellent choice for fragrance gardens and for planting near patios, walkways, and seating areas where the flowers can be enjoyed up close.

The blooms are carried on upright stems and make beautiful additions to fresh-cut arrangements. Repeat flowering provides successive flushes throughout the growing season, allowing gardeners to enjoy its remarkable lavender color and fragrance from spring through fall.
