Tess of the d’Urbervilles®

Named for the Thomas Hardy novel, Tess of the d’Urbervilles® features large, fragrant, 4″ flowers with 70+ petals in a bright crimson color. Her blooms have a nice, deeply curved shape in the early stages, and then her petals turn back to a less formal flower. Tess of the d’Urbervilles®’ blooms are hefty and usually bend over, giving an elegant, cascading effect to the bush. Her growth is robust and spreads against large, dark green foliage. We love Tess of the d’Urbervilles®’ old rose and fruity-myrrh fragrance and that she is a generous, repeat bloomer. She can makes an excellent Climber and be grown in a large container.
