Mayfield Florist has the best lavender roses in Tucson. We purchase many of the lavender roses we sell direct from both domestic and international growers. Our lavender Ecuadorian roses are truly something special. They are grown high in the mountains, where the roses enjoy near perfect growing conditions. These gorgeous roses have longer stems, larger blooms and offer extended vase life.
Lavender roses are a unique flower, with a scent and color that is unlike any other. They are not just a different variety of rose, but rather a completely different species altogether. Lavender roses are actually called "lavandula" or "lavender." They belong to the same family as mints and other aromatic herbs, so they have a similar fragrance.
The flowers themselves are small and tightly bunched together. They are soft and pale pink in color, with a strong fragrance that reminds you of springtime. Their scent is sweet, but not overpowering—it's just enough to make you happy every time you smell them!
A lavender rose is a hybridized flower that is created by crossing two different types of roses. The result is a stunning flower with the lush, full petals of an orange or red rose, but with the delicate scent of lavender. Lavender roses are often used in bouquets and arrangements because they add a fresh floral scent without overpowering the other flowers in the arrangement itself.
Rose growers bring together different varieties of rose plants to create new ones each year using cross-pollination techniques that have been used for centuries. By combining different traits from different families (like color or fragrance), they can engineer new varieties of flowers every year without having to wait for nature to take its course. This means that there's literally an endless variety of beautiful, fragrant flowers available in stores every season.
