Description

Oklahoma Hybrid Tea Rose is one of the darkest red roses, producing velvety, deep crimson blooms that appear almost black in certain lights. The flowers are large, very double, and exude a strong, damask fragrance. It is a tall, upright grower that makes a dramatic statement in the garden. While it can benefit from disease prevention, it is highly prized by rose enthusiasts for its intense color and rich perfume.

Intense Damask Fragrance: A powerful, old-rose scent.
Tall & Upright Habit: Makes a striking vertical accent in the garden.
Excellent Fragrant Cut Flower: Highly prized for dramatic, fragrant bouquets.
