Flavorette™ Pear'd™ Rose is a rare gem among roses, offering three seasons of beauty, exceptional disease resistance, and uniquely edible blooms. A Proven Winners® ColorChoice® Flowering Shrubs variety, this cold-hardy, long-blooming rose is equally versatile and stunning. You may choose to grow it for its soft, romantic flowers, pollinator-friendly appeal, or its delicious, subtly sweet petals.
From early summer through fall, this deciduous shrub is covered in delicate, semidouble blooms in soft shades of light pink. The 2- to 3-inch flowers, with their deep layers of petals, exude charm and make exquisite cuts for floral arrangements. But these blooms aren't just for admiration, they also attract bees and butterflies, creating a pollinator-friendly environment. Even better, the petals are edible, offering a smooth, velvety texture and a light, sweet pear-like flavor that adds a gourmet touch to garden-fresh salads, herbal infusions, teas, desserts, and homemade syrups. Plant Flavorette Pear'd to bring culinary creativity right from garden to table.
Flavorette Pear'd has a compact, upright habit and vigorous growth so it's well-suited for a variety of landscape applications. It thrives as a striking specimen in the garden or a container, where its soft pink blooms and healthy green foliage can be admired singly. But we find it to be at its most breathtaking when grouped in mixed beds, borders, and foundation plantings, where its delicate color and continuous blooms complement the plants around it. Its ease of care and ability to rebloom throughout the season add to its list of attributes.
Cold-hardy to Zone 4, Flavorette Pear'd is disease-resistant, resilient, and easy to maintain. It flourishes in full sun and prefers cool, moist, well-draining soil with an acidic pH, ensuring strong root development and season-long performance. With minimal effort, this rose will reward you with months of color, fragrance, and edible blooms. A rose unlike any other, Flavorette Pear'd Rose is a must-have for gardeners who grow both ornamental and edible plants.
