Bon-Bon This charming little Floribunda is an AARS Award Winner for 1974. The rose-pink and cream buds open to rounded, cupped blooms, deep rose and white with white reverse, in heavy clusters, opening continuously and repeating the show over and over again from early spring until frost. This bloom performs beautifully in all climates, and is as richly fragrant as it is colorful. With its medium height and neat, compact habit, the plant is especially desirable for landscaping. Petals fall cleanly, too. ‘Bon Bon’ was hybridized  by William Warner of the Jackson & Perkins Co.
