What customers say
Consumers are overwhelmingly captivated by the intense, sweet fragrance of the Sweet Intoxication rose, citing it as a standout feature that truly lives up to its name. The vibrant, deep color is also consistently celebrated for its visual appeal and design. While the overall quality of the mature bloom is excellent, a few gardeners noted variability in the initial plant size upon arrival, suggesting establishment reliability can sometimes be a concern. However, those who successfully establish the plant find it a rewarding and reliable addition to the garden, offering exceptional sensory value.
