More information

Mildred Scheel is a crimson hybrid tea rose, associated with 1980s breeding. Flowers are typically borne singly and display a classic high-centered, goblet-shaped form. At full bloom, numerous small central petals create a densely packed, slightly irregular center. Blooms are deep crimson and retain color well. The fragrance is strong with a typical red-rose character; blooms are rain-sensitive. Foliage is dark, glossy, and disease-resistant. The bush is vigorous, reaching about 1 m in hot climates; flowering performs better in cool or lightly shaded sites.

Buds are rounded-pointed, almost black. Flowers are dark red, velvety, long-lasting, slow to open, large (9–10 cm), densely petaled (50–60 petals), very fragrant, and mostly solitary. Leaves are dark green, matte; young leaves are beetroot-colored. Spines are frequent. Shrubs are strong-growing, dense. Blooms abundantly. For groups and bush culture. Noted for very dark coloration.
