Coretta Scott King

We are no longer growing this rose. We maintain this listing for our customer’s reference purposes.

Named for Civil Rights activist and wife of Martin Luther King, Jr, this rose is as strong and captivating as her namesake. Her long, pointed buds open to large, full, clustered blooms with a creamy white center and coral-orange dipped edges. The color seems to brighten as each blossom opens to reveal 30+ petals on a 4” flower. Coretta Scott King has a moderate fragrance and excellent disease resistance growing to an average of 3-5’ in height. We love her in beds, borders, or containers as she thrives in all locations!
