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

Sterling Silver is the true and original lavender rose, being nearly thornless and having a sweet and citrusy fragrance. The parent or ancestor of nearly every single modern lavender variety today.

This rose should be grown by an experienced gardener and may be slightly challenging for the first two years, however, once it becomes established it is a fabulous rose.

Sterling Silver

Love it

I had sterling silver at my house in shafter California loved it . Looking for another one for me in Kentucky. It’s one of my favorites.

Incredibly beautiful!

After losing a couple of Sterling Silver roses, I really babied my last one. It was worth it! She grew harty, thick stems and produced beautiful blooms! However, one day last fall, my husband backed up too far and completely decapitated the rose! I was heartbroken! So, hoping for a miracle, I cut off 16 stems, dipped them in hormone powder, and planted each in a small plastic pot. Every one of them sprouted leaves! Of those, 5 died, but the rest are doing very well, and a couple of them have even bloomed - after only 7 months! I've given three away and will gift other friends too, but I plan on keeping about three and I'll plant them in the fall. Meanwhile, after feeding the decapitated original Heirloom's Fish Fertilizer, she has thrown up a big sprout and will clearly live despite the tragedy. I highly recommend the Sterling Silver Rose! She's a winner!

Sterling Silver rose, beautiful.

My husband sent me these quite often before and after we married. They were dominant in my wedding bouquet. He has passed and I would like to get this rose in his memory for my garden. I had 2 of these as tree roses 30 years ago; but of course they are long gone. My favorite.

Timeless

My grandmother had a sterling silver so after my mother inherited hers, I decided to purchase my own. I bought my first sterling 6-8 yrs ago. Very sensitive bush. Thrived after the first year. It produced stunning lilac lavender light enough to almost look like a touch of silver (hence the name) colored roses. Fragrant and lasting. Magnificent in every way! I recently bought my second sterling, and hope it thrives as they are no longer available for purchase.
