Crush on You Floribunda Rose

You will become immediately infatuated with our 2014 Floribunda of the Year, 'Crush on You', as soon as its bright red blooms begin to appear in the summer garden. Each exquisitely formed, 3½-inch flower is comprised of between 15 and 20 spice-scented petals, and they arise in brilliant clusters that are just perfect for displaying in vases.

The healthy glossy, dark green foliage is very attractive even when not adorned with the brightly colored flowers, and its size (just 4 feet high and 3 feet wide at maturity) makes it ideal for a variety of uses, from inclusion in sunny beds and borders to low hedges and even large patio containers. And of course, it is exactly the rose you will want in your cut garden. The sheer bloom power of this floribunda will amaze you!

Plant 'Crush on You' in moist, loamy, well-drained soil in full sun. It is recommended that you prune it in spring. Old and dead wood should be removed and canes that cross each other need to be cut back. Gardeners in warmer climates should cut back the remaining canes by about one-third, while those in colder areas will probably want to prune a little more than that. Zones 5-9.
