Louis Philippe Rose (Heirloom Florida Cracker Rose) - Rosaceae

The Louis Philippe Rose Heirloom Cracker Rose is one of the best performing roses for Florida and the Southeastern states. It has deep pink petals. The leaves may develop some black spotting during periods of extreme heat and humidity, but those leaves are quickly shed and replaced with fresh, new growth. The Louis Philippe Rose Heirloom Cracker Rose grows on its own rootstock and does not have to be deadheaded to give continuous blooms. Of course, it performs best with a little attention and dead-heading. This highly-scented, year-long bloomer is an excellent and virtually problem-free rose.
