David Austin English Roses Heathcliff

Description

Few roses are as popular as those with deep-crimson coloring – and none so difficult to breed. ‘Heathcliff’ is a beautiful addition to English roses of this color group. It has large, fully double flowers with deep rosette shape. The color is a deep crimson, with a certain softness that is reminiscent of some of the old red Gallica roses. It is a healthy variety, with shiny, deep-green leaves and rather upright growth. Its fragrance is both rich and rather unusual – basically tea rose with a mixture of old rose and just a hint of cedar wood.
