🌸 A Rare Beauty for Discerning Gardeners
Rose ‘Blue Moon’ is admired for its distinctive silvery-lilac petals. These large, classic hybrid tea flowers appear singly on long, upright stems, making them ideal for cutting and floral arrangements. The delicate yet rich fragrance adds another layer of sensory delight, making this rose a standout both in the garden and indoors.🌿 Growth Habit & Performance in Toowoomba
This upright shrub typically grows to around 1.2 – 1.5 metres tall, with glossy green foliage that contrasts beautifully with the pale violet blooms. ‘Blue Moon’ thrives in Toowoomba’s temperate climate, particularly in sunny, well-drained spots. It performs best with morning sun exposure and protection from harsh afternoon winds or extreme heat.
Thanks to Toowoomba’s relatively cool winters and mild summers, gardeners here will find ‘Blue Moon’ can produce several strong flushes of flowers from late spring through autumn. With good care and regular deadheading, you’ll enjoy long-lasting colour and fragrance in your garden beds, borders, or pots.
