More information
The buds of Tess of the d'Urbervilles are almost black, and the flowers are a radiant, rich crimson when they open. As they age, the blooms fade to a paler crimson, open wider, and the petals fold downward, creating a pom‑pom appearance; the flowers hang so that mainly the tip is visible within the foliage. In hot climates, Tess of the d'Urbervilles grows as a small‑petalled rose, and its spreading habit makes the downward‑facing flowers clearly visible. As the bush matures, the blooms increase greatly in size. They usually appear singly or in clusters of up to 4. The foliage is large and dark, and the shoots are very prickly.
This rose bears large, red‑crimson flowers. They form rosettes with loosely arranged petals curled at the center. Over time, the outer petals bend downward. Blooms are very numerous, and branches often bend to the ground under their weight. Later, the flowers become lighter. The fragrance resembles rose oil. The bush is vigorous and disease‑resistant, with large, dark green foliage. It forms a medium‑sized shrub. When trained on a support as a climbing rose, it reaches 1.8–2.4 m.
