In the Mood Hybrid Tea Rose

Nothin' says lovin' like a red rose. But here's a really-red rose that turns up the heat with big round petals virtually dripping with super-saturated redness. Each big buxom blossom holds that very same brilliance until they fall exhausted from the bushy prolific plant. The long lovely stems are swathed in gobs of gray-green leaves. If red is your thing, then this is the 'it' rose for you. Clear color in an weather. Improves with establishment.
