Grandiflora rose 'About Face'
FamilyRosaceae
Rosa grandiflora ‘About Face’, commonly known as the ‘About Face’ grandiflora rose, is distinguished by its dramatic contrast and erect, bushy habit. It produces large, double, luminous coppery-orange flowers whose golden-yellow reverse creates a striking bicolor effect when the petals fully open. Slightly fragrant and borne on long, strong stems, they are ideal for cut flowers and offer excellent vase life. Its glossy dark green foliage enhances the intensity of the colors and provides a structuring presence in beds, borders, or as a specimen plant. Blooming all summer, Rosa grandiflora ‘About Face’ attracts pollinating insects and adds a warm and dynamic touch to landscape designs.
