Nicole Carol Miller

Rose Type: Grandiflora

Nicole Carol Miller is a memorable Grandiflora rose with large, high-centered blooms painted in soft lavender and brushed with rich mauve tones. The 5-inch flowers carry 35 to 40 petals, creating an elegant, exhibition-style appearance that stands out in the garden. Named in honor of a victim of United Flight 93 on September 11, this variety offers both remarkable beauty and a meaningful story.

Its powerful fragrance blends bright citrus notes with the classic character of old rose perfume, creating a scent that carries well throughout the garden. The tall, upright plant produces healthy stems that make it well suited for cutting and floral arrangements, while semi-glossy, medium-green foliage provides an attractive backdrop for the blooms. Exceptional disease resistance and strong heat tolerance contribute to its dependable garden performance.
