This is an excellent lavender miniature rose that has fragrance; as long as it gets some fungicide as it’s coming out of dormancy (Zone 8B) it has very little issues with disease. My plant was an own root from Burlington Nursery. For my plant I’ve noticed the bluer lavender hues are best in cooler weather (in heat they go white or more lilac (pink toned). Occasionally some of the older blooms do take on a more tan color. Sweet Arlene and Moonlight Scentsation are some other lavender mini/mini floras I grow that are also great companions or alternatives to Winter Magic.
