In a forgiving climate, this can easily build up to a 6 foot shrub over decades. It will happily exceed 2 feet tall in average conditions, with little pruning needed.

Plant Patent 3,818 attached to "Blue Heaven" on the Description Page lists the Seed Parent as "Sterling Silver" and the Pollen Parent as "Simone". "Song of Paris", as Pollen Parent, is not listed on the patent as it is on the Lineage tree page for this rose. Is there a reason for this apparent discrepancy?

According to an email received from Tom Carruth, the rose was named for the gemstone (not the Wilkie Collins novel).
