.Sugar Moon is a hybrid tea bred by Christian Bédard for Weeks Roses and introduced in 2012. It’s one of the more fragrant white roses available: the scent is strong and sweet, rose with a citrus note. Large, pointed buds unfurl into big, full blooms of clean, bright white, about 12–13 cm across, in classic hybrid tea form. They’re usually borne one to a long stem, so they’re excellent for cutting. It repeats in flushes through the season. The plant is tall, upright and bushy, about 140–180 cm tall and 60–90 cm wide, with large dark green leaves that set off the white flowers, and it has very good disease resistance. Plant it in full sun. It’s rated hardy to zone 5.
