More information

This orange tea-hybrid rose is named after a French actor. Blooms are large, borne singly on long, sturdy shoots. The colour is a bright nasturtium shade, slightly deeper at the petal edges and more yellow toward the base. The undersides of the petals are also yellow, producing a two-colour effect. Later, the yellow pigment fades, the petals shift to a redder tone, and the tips become crimson. At all stages, the bloom shows the described colour transitions. The bush is strong-growing, disease resistant, with sparse thorns and bright green foliage.
