'PERFUME DELIGHT' ROSE

Rosa 'Perfume Delight' was the winner of the All-America Rose Selection Award in 1974. And rightly so! This rich, deep rose-pink beauty produces elegant buds that open into large, fully double 12 cm blooms which are borne on long stems for cutting. The perfume is a strong, heady old damask rose fragrance. A vigorous, strong, upright continual blooming bush with dark green foliage.

We have this rose growing in our garden and with the early Autumn weather it is getting another flowering in before the cold weather sets in. It really is a delightful rose and the fragrance is heavenly!
