Rhapsody in Blue

I have fallen in love with this very deep purple rose which I believe is a Heritage rose. I can't find it in the ususal rose nurseries and don't know of any Heritage Rose growers. They also need to send to WA. Ann

RE: Rhapsody in Blue

Annabel I bought this rose 3 years ago from Bunnings Joondalup, I wasn't even sure if it was on Fortuniana (?) rootstock but regardless it has done really well for me in my very hot garden. It does blow out a bit in summer but you get so many flowers it doesn't matter. I will look when I'm over there next and see if they still have it for you.
Good luck!

I'm glad Bunings do have it. The garden lady was in our new garden centre a couple of weeks ago so I ordered it. Only some of Bunnings roses are on Fortuniana rootstock, but prob not this. In my scrolling I found a similar on from Swanes called Route 66 and Roworths in Lansdale had (they get Swanes roses) it so I ordered it through our local garden centre. Have not heard yet. I'm in Esperance so too far from Joondalup and no-one coming to Perth. Many thanks, ann

Hi,
I am looking for a rhapsody in blue rose as well but no luck. Does anyone know where I could get one or even a cutting? Thanks
Jackie
