HYBRID TEA (Var: MElcesar) Rich velvety blooms adorn long sturdy stems making this the ultimate cutting rose. Unlike other roses of intense red, the color of this beauty does not fade as the blossom matures. In fact, it deepens in richness and warmth, becoming an intense dark burgundy. It is common for a rose of this color to lack fragrance, but Papa Meilland does not follow suit. The perfume is intense and fruity, not just for a red rose, but across the board. This rose has won several awards including James Alexander Gamble Fragrance Medal from the American Rose Society, and was also elected into the World Federation of Rose Societies Hall of Fame.
