About Purple Aura™ Potted Rose Bush

Rosa 'Meiscouby' PPAF  Purple Aura™

Purple Aura™ is a striking Floribunda rose with large, double blooms in shades of deep lavender and purple, sometimes blushed with smoky undertones for added depth. The flowers appear both singly and in small clusters, carrying a moderate fragrance that blends spice and sweetness.
