Rosa 'The Queen Elizabeth Rose'

Noteworthy Characteristics

Rosa is a genus of about 150 species of deciduous (occasionally evergreen) shrubs and climbers noted for their beautiful, often fragrant, single, semidouble or double flowers which are borne singly or in clusters on often prickly stems clad with 5-9 leaflets often having toothed margins.

Hybrid tea, floribunda and grandiflora roses are the classic florist-type roses. Hybrid tea roses have high centers, long stems and usually produce just one terminal flower per shoot. Floribundas produce clusters of flowers and grandifloras produce clusters of high-centered flowers. These roses require regular, severe pruning to maintain size and produce the long-stemmed blooms they are known for.

Genus name comes from the Latin name.

QUEEN ELIZABETH is an upright grandiflora rose that typically grows to 4-6’ tall and to 2-3’ wide. It features double, silver-pink blooms (to 2-4” diameter) singly or in long-stemmed clusters from May to frost. Mild fragrance. Medium to dark green foliage. Stems are nearly thornless. QUEEN ELIZABETH is the result of a cross between R. 'Charlotte Armstrong' and R. 'Floradora'. AARS award winner in 1955. Lammerts 1954.
