Rose Type: Floribunda
Intrigue is a striking floribunda rose celebrated for its extraordinary deep plum-purple blooms. The velvety flowers measure approximately 3.5 inches across and carry 25–30 petals, creating a rich, saturated display that stands apart from more traditional rose colors. Dark green foliage provides the perfect backdrop, allowing the unusual flower color to take center stage throughout the blooming season.
A bold citrus fragrance, highlighted by bright lemon notes, makes Intrigue as memorable for its scent as it is for its appearance. This bushy, medium-sized plant produces abundant flowers on a well-balanced framework and offers excellent cutting potential for fresh arrangements. Very strong disease resistance, along with dependable performance in both coastal gardens and warmer climates, has helped make this award-winning variety a favorite among gardeners looking for both beauty and reliability.
