This rose is a real treasure for those who value classic beauty and noble shades in the garden. Its tall, goblet-shaped buds with an exceptionally deep color — from dark red to almost black velvet — slowly open into fully double blooms with elegantly curved petals. The contrast between the black-red outer petals and the lighter, ruby-red center makes each flower truly unique and expressive.

The rose blooms in waves with short pauses, delighting the eye throughout the season. The flowers tolerate hot sun and rainy weather well. In cut form, they remain fresh for up to 14 days, making the variety especially valuable for bouquets and floral arrangements.

The bush is neat, upright, and fast-growing, with strong growth and dark green glossy foliage. Young shoots have a bronze hue, adding decorative appeal even outside the flowering season.

This rose is a bright accent for any garden and a versatile choice for those seeking a balance of beauty and practicality. Equally effective in solitary or group plantings, it is also excellent for cutting.

Blooming: repeat, abundant, long-lasting. Flowers appear singly or in small clusters of 1−3.

Disease resistance: high.

Planting Location:

Roses thrive in sunny locations, so choose spots with plenty of sunlight throughout the day. Ensure the planting site is sheltered from strong winds.

*The female name given to the rose is not a variety name. A rose is like a woman, beautiful, elegant and unique, so each one inspired us for a woman’s name as well.
