Know before you buy
This form means the rose has been grafted onto a tall, straight stem, elevating the blooms to eye level. It creates a formal, architectural look that works perfectly as a focal point in a container or a structured garden bed.
The Olivia Rose Austin is known for its exceptional repeat flowering. You can expect an early start to the season with consistent, reliable blooms that continue to appear through the fall.
One of the benefits of this variety is its versatility; it is suitable for all soil types. As long as the soil is well-draining and nutrient-rich, it will perform reliably.
While the tree rose reaches a mature height of approximately 6 feet, its growth is well-balanced and upright. It is an excellent choice for smaller spaces or containers where you want height without a wide, sprawling footprint.
