About Bronze Star™ Potted Rose Bush

Rosa ‘Wezaprt’ Bronze Star™

Bronze Star™ is a richly fragrant hybrid tea rose that opens stunning apricot-toned blooms which fade to glowing bronze—an elegant nod to old-fashioned charm with modern resilience. Each double flower, about 6" across, carries a spicy-sweet scent and is borne on a strong, upright, bushy plant that repeats bloom from late spring through autumn. With its dramatic coloration and fragrance, it’s a standout cut flower performer for the garden or vase.
