Fortuniana Rootstock, The Best Option for Southern Regions

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.

  • 30% more Flowers
  • 20% Larger Flowers
  • Significantly greater Vigor and adaptability in the South.
  • Resistance to Crown Gall
  • Resistance to Root knot Nematodes
  • Moderate spreading habit
  • Excellent disease resistance
  • Fruity rose fragrance

As sweet and fashionable as its namesake, "Uptown Girl" is a must-have for a showy backyard garden or set in front of a bay window. An old-fashioned style rose, Uptown Girl blooms with the "quartered" look typical of English roses. Its petals are tucked into a cup shape, in serried ranks with a scalloped appearance. Medium-sized, coral-pink flowers feature a darker reverse and outstanding color retention.

If you haven't tried grandifloras, this is a great beginner's rose, thanks to its resistance to rust, powdery mildew, and downy mildew. Grandiflora roses are a combination of hybrid teas married with floribundas, and achieve the graceful blooms of a tea with the hardiness and zeal of the floribunda. They also hold an incredible, sweet-fruity fragrance. Rosa 'Uptown Girl'
