Chihuly® Floribunda Rose

Each bloom is a unique work of art! You and your guests will be amazed at the impeccable style. Bear witness to an ever-changing array of flashy colors! So if you are feeling creative, add the Chihuly® Floribunda Rose (Rosa 'WEKscemala') to your garden this season!

Dale Chihuly used molten glass to express his big, otherworldly ideas! His flowing, vibrant glass artwork is truly inspired, and so is this special hybridized Floribunda Rose from Tom Carruth! Every walk in your garden can be like visiting a museum! Cut sprays regularly for lovely indoor arrangements.

Be fascinated by the color play from the bright yellow petals that, like the versatile artwork of Chihuly himself, these Roses are streaked and touched here and there with warm apricots, dazzling orange and even deep red. At a distance, Chihuly® Rose reads as rich, warm yellow. But up close, the painterly blend becomes a living interpretation of the flowing glass pieces that are loved by so many.

Like the effective scaffolding that holds up a Chihuly glass installation, thick green foliage acts as a perfect support for the beautiful streaked petals.

Chihuly® foliage stays clean with very modern disease resistance to black spot and powdery mildew. Remarkably heat and humidity-tolerant, Chihuly® Floribunda Rose looks fantastic throughout USDA growing zones 6 to 10!

Planting and Application:

Why spend money on a single bouquet, when you could grow your own spectacular Chihuly® Roses at home? Our Rose experts adore this special striped cultivar and deliver excellent quality, large bushes that catch your eye immediately!

Please push the design envelope when using this in your landscape. These striped Roses deserve a special place of honor! Get people talking about this amazing Rose by using it as a bold hedge along your front walkway. Or create a twisting-turning garden path with other unique plants like evergreen Slenderina Weeping Blue Spruce and the fun springtime lollipops of Allium bulbs.

Fill a bare sunny area in your yard with bold, bright colors. This is a wonderfully rugged, upright rounded bush and can be massed in staggered, zig-zagging rows. Likewise, just a single specimen in a garden bed or border, or elevated into a high-style planter are sure to make a statement as they shine their radiant faces in the sun!

Delight the local butterflies with their nectar. Reblooming in flushes through the season, you'll help support beneficial pollinators, too!

Another interesting way to use this top choice is to create a Destination spot in your landscape. Then tuck it into a secluded sunny corner as a floral reward for taking the unexpected path. This would be a perfect focal point in a Meditation Garden. Keep it in containers to decorate your balcony Yoga studio.

Let your inner artist create something enchanting! Be bold in your garden design, just as Dale Chihuly uses glass in a completely innovative way.

Want to kick things further up a notch? Pair the Chihuly® Floribunda with its magnificent Chihuly® tree-form Rose for a varied and multidimensional garden bed that will have the neighbors green with envy! Space between dark evergreen shrubs or flowering groundcovers for a remarkable display!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Plant Floribunda Roses in full sun with at least six hours of direct sunlight a day. Please ensure the soil drains quickly after rain, Rose roots don't tolerate standing water. If you have heavy soil that stays soggy for a long time, improve your soil's drainage by elevating your Rose in a raised bed or keeping them in containers. Supply Chihuly® Roses with a consistent schedule of watering for best results. This is especially true for container-grown plants.

Dig your planting hole twice as wide as the roots, but no deeper. Don't forget the Nature Hills Root Booster at the time of planting, to give this fragrant Rose life-long support! Keep the soil level the same as we have grown in at the nursery. Feed your Roses specialty Rose fertilizer. Please follow the label directions for application rates and timing.

Mulch helps keep the root zone cool. Please add a three-inch layer around your plant, then pull it back away from touching the canes. In late November when your Roses have been exposed to killing frosts it is a great idea to mound the stems up with some additional mulch for overwintering (especially important in the colder zones). Always wait to prune Roses until spring when you pull the mulch away.

Bag and remove all leaf litter in fall. In early spring, prune each of the Rose canes down to 6 - 8 inches at a 45-degree angle just above a nice, fat bud. Check out more about Rose pruning Here, and about winterizing Roses, and un-wintering Roses in spring in our #ProPlantTips Garden Blog!

Rose Bush FAQs

Where Is The Best Place To Plant Rose Bushes?

Rose bushes prefer full sun and favor the drying power of the morning sun and flower best in at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day. Choose a location in good, enriched soil that drains well and has good air circulation.

What Is The Best Month to Plant Roses?

You can plant Roses any time if you are able to provide enough consistent moisture and attention. While there is not a specific month that is best, generally because it changes with temperatures, climate, and growing zone. However, the easiest times of the year to get Rose bushes established in your landscape are in spring after the last frost date, and in fall about 4-6 weeks before the first frost.

Do Rose Bushes Come Back Every Year?

Rose bushes are deciduous woody perennial shrubs and will return bigger and better each year.
