Rosa 'Sweet Spirit' is a grandiflora rose with refined charm and a delicate fragrance. It is distinguished by its large, double, soft, slightly pearlescent pink flowers, whose satiny petals form an elegantly turbinate cup. Produced in clusters on long, strong stems, they offer excellent vase life while maintaining a beautiful presence in the garden. Its moderate, sweet, and subtle fragrance accompanies a generous and recurrent bloom that ensures a sustained presence throughout the season. Its upright and vigorous habit creates a structured silhouette, ideal for borders or as a specimen plant. Its dark green, dense, and healthy foliage highlights the softness of the color and contributes to good overall resistance. Rosa 'Sweet Spirit' brings elegance, floral consistency, and romantic softness to the garden while actively attracting pollinating insects.
