More information

This rose is not yet present in our country. A slender bush bearing dark burgundy flowers with velvety petals and a high-centered bloom. Strong fragrance. Blooms from early spring to late autumn.
Oklahoma is a large, vigorous, dark-red hybrid tea rose. It shares the same parents as Mr Lincoln and Papa Meilland, and of the three it is the darkest. The flowers arise from large buds, and the petals open slowly. The blooms are initially globular, later cup-shaped. Almost black markings may appear on the upper edges of the petals. Flowers usually appear singly at the ends of strong, stiff shoots and are suitable for cutting. The variety performs better in dry climates: in wet weather, the blooms may ball and rot, but it tolerates heat very well. It is resistant to diseases, with large foliage and large prickles. In hot climates it can reach 2.5 m.
