Is there anything that smells so sweet as the favorite perfume of the one you love? This rose must hit the mark, as the English hybridizer named it for his wife. Sheila's Perfume is a Floribunda, with all the easy care and hardiness thereof, but features blooms that look a bit more like Hybrid Teas. You'll love the large size and high centers of these perfect flowers, each a stunning yellow and brushed with pink. The overall shape of the rose bush is nicely rounded, and packed with glossy green leaves. True to its name, this rose offers an incredible fragrance, too. Sheila's Perfume offers the best flower color and size when cool, so keep this one out of the hot afternoon sun. However, Fortuniana rootstock make this a happy southern rose.
Warm-zone gardeners, this changes everything! We're thrilled to now offer Fortuniana rootstock on some of our most popular rose varieties. Prized by rosarians for its superior performance, adaptability and longevity in Southern gardens, Fortuniana rootstock requires more effort for commercial growers to produce, which is also why these roses can be so difficult for home gardeners to find.

- Resistance to root knot nematodes
- Resistance to crown gall
