Miniature Rose 'Seattle Scentsation': Fragrant Gem from Saville

Introduced in 1996 by Saville (PP9821, aka SAVaseat), 'Seattle Scentsation' stands out in the miniature class for its exceptional fragrance—a strong, sweet, spicy perfume that belies its small stature. The plant forms a compact, bushy mound 15 to 18 inches tall and wide, bearing clusters of 1.5 to 2-inch, fully double blooms in a lovely medium pink. The flowers are classically formed, high-centered when opening, then cupping.

Foliage is small, glossy, dark green, and disease-resistant. 'Seattle Scentsation' blooms heavily in flushes from spring through fall. It's hardy to USDA zone 5 and excels in containers, where its fragrance can be appreciated up close on a patio or balcony. It also works well as edging or in rock gardens.

This rose is part of the "Scentsation" series bred for fragrance—a rare priority in miniatures. For gardeners who want the charm of miniature roses without sacrificing scent, 'Seattle Scentsation' delivers a powerful olfactory experience in a pint-sized package.
