Rosa 'Cinco De Mayo' is a floribunda rose with a unique blend of smoky orange-red hues and hazy purple tones. Intriguing and indescribable, this rose features 3.5-inch diameter ruffled flowers that form in small clusters and are exceptionally floriferous. Its mildly sweet apple fragrance and festive, colorful stemmed bouquets make ‘Cinco De Mayo’ an ideal cut flower. Disease-resistant and distinctly dazzling, this rose is ready to party.
Cinco De Mayo floribunda rose is a medium-sized, rounded, bushy shrub with glossy green leaves, suitable for both garden beds and containers. The smoked lavender and dusky red-orange flowers, which have up to 25 petals, bloom in flushes from spring through fall. Introduced in the US in 2009, ‘Cinco De Mayo’ is also known as ‘The Shire’ or ‘Celebration Time’. Cooler temperatures enhance the smoky colors.
