Rose, Dick Clark
Black-red buds spiral open to show off swirls of cream edged & washed with vibrant cherry pink. When the sun strikes the petals, they begin to blush burgundy, finishing as a deep dark red. Put all this color against super-shiny-green foliage with nice long cutting stems and you've got a killer combo. Nicely fragrant, easy to grow and great vigor. Largest flower size in cooler temp.
