Playboy – Floribunda rose with masses of flamboyant single blooms in clusters in shades of bright orange/yellow with scarlet tips.
This incredibly delightful rose should be more widely planted for it’s generous ability to produce immense clusters of flowers throughout the flowering season without any care or concern for the weather or however you maintain or neglect it – it’s such a happy rose which was originally named ‘Cheerio’!
The foliage of Playboy is so shiny and extremely healthy. It is one of the roses which, while flowering profusely, you can see the new growth and flower buds already being produced for the next round of flowers. If this rose was released today rather than nearly 40 years ago, it would be classed with the ‘Modern Shrub Roses’ because Playboy has the ability to flower all over the bush – from the ground up and it would make a real spectacle in a mass planting where it would require very low maintenance and mechanical pruning.
- One of the happiest and healthiest roses
- Mass planted it would be a real spectacle
- Extremely healthy and abundant flowering
- Brilliant as a cut flower for a stand-out arrangement
