More information
Deep red roses are widely in demand, and breeding this colour class is comparatively challenging; within roses, few colour groups pose as much difficulty. Heathcliff belongs to the family of English roses in this hue. The variety is characterised by large, densely petalled blooms with a deep rosette form. The colouration is dark red with a slightly warm tone, recalling certain old red Gallica roses in overall effect and character. The bush is rather upright in growth habit, and the foliage is dark green, glossy, and shows disease resistance. The fragrance combines tea-rose notes with antique nuances and a faint hint of cedar in the background.
