Canada Blooms Names Plant of the Year 2021 – Aurora Borealis™ Rose

Aurora Borealis Rose from Vineland

Canada Blooms is excited to announce the Canada Blooms Plant of the Year for 2021 is the Aurora Borealis™ rose  from Vineland Research and Innovation Centre’s 49th Parallel Collection.

The bright dancing lights of the aurora are captured in the blooming clusters of this dramatic sunset pink rose set against dark green and glossy foliage.

This low-maintenance rose measures one-metre in height with a one-metre spread and features black spot resistance and winter hardiness across Canada.

Vineland’s 49th Parallel Collection stems from Canada’s national rose program at Vineland in collaboration with the Canadian Nursery Landscape Association.

The 49th Parallel roses are grown for both strength and beauty, and named for Canadian natural phenomena.

Visit the newly refreshed 49throses.com for more information on Aurora Borealis™ as well as Yukon Sun™, the next rose scheduled for release in 2023.
