The Story
Plant Bio
Roses are woody perennial flowering plants of the genus Rosa, prized for their often fragrant flowers which come in a vast range of colors, forms, and sizes. Peach Lemonade is a unique rose whose flowers undergo a dramatic color transformation, opening bright lemon yellow and maturing to a blush pink. This creates a striking multicolored effect on the compact, disease-resistant shrub.
