DELBARDS

The Painters’ Roses collection.

The different and exciting Painters’ Roses are the most popular releases of the Delbard’s collections. Each variety and individual rose is unique and exquisitely beautiful, appearing to have been created in the Impressionist style of painting. There is a random but definite link between the Impressionist Masterpieces and the colours of the roses. Their petals are each a whirling pallet of colours mingling unpredictably, ‘each time, neither the same, nor entirely different’, but always a unique harmonious floral arrangement, replenished for you day after day..

Red Intuition TM
$20.00 ea
Australia’s best-selling Delbard rose. Red IntuitionTM is prized for the perfection of the large, classic Hybrid Tea shaped flowers, massed with petals.

A vigorous growth habit, Red Intuition flowers continually from spring all the way through to late autumn, producing stems laden with bunches of bright unfading blooms. The long flower stems are ideal for cutting.They have a wonderful vase life of up to 10 days without drooping. Indeed, Red IntuitionTM won the International Cut Flower of the Year 2000. Grows approximately 120cm tall. Red IntuitionTM (DELSTRIRO)

Sorbet Fromboise TM
$18.00 ea
new release 2008
Sorbet FromboiseTM (delsorb) is another wonderful Painters Collection rose with its individual blooms showing swirling colors of strawberries and cream as the name implies. Each bloom is unique with its painted brush strokes, but when seen en masse with their large clustered arms of flowers, the effect of pinks and creamy whites is superb.
Another hardy disease free rose, Sorbet Fromboise grows into a rounded shrub with a very bushy habit, which helps the repeat flowering performance flower right to the ground.
A perfect hedge when planted 80cm apart, even the dog will have a hard time getting through this superb screen.
Height 80 – 120cm (DELSORB)

Alfred Sisley

$20.00 ea
new release 2008
As one of Frances great Impressionist Painters during the 1870’s, Sisley painted the beautiful snow bound streets of Paris, the Seine in flood, to the Thames at Hampton Court. His works became invaluable accounts of pure impressionism of the times. Along with Pissarro, Monet, Matisse and Renoir, together they symbolized the wonderful art revolution that was Impressionism!
This world of Impressionism continues today, and is represented in the wonderful colors of Roses, with the French Rose breeder ‘Delbard’and their ‘Painters Collection’
Alfred Sisley follows the Delbard tradition set down by the classic roses, ‘Henri Matisse, Camille Pissarro, Paul Cezanne, Maurice Utrillo’ and the glorious ‘Red Intuition’.
Alfred Sisley

the rose bears all the swirling colors and brush strokes of its predecessors, tantalizing burnt salmon-oranges splashed with creamy-whites, no two roses are alike. With age the blooms deepen in color, the orange tones take on darker antique-tan shades. As a plant (approx 1.2m tall) Alfred Sisley

shall bloom repeatedly en-masse, flowering with so much color that when planted as a hedge or as standards you can hardly see foliage. The double blooms are up to 15cm across and unfurl themselves not unlike camellia flowers. As with the other painted roses in the series Alfred Sisley

is very hardy and resistant to disease, and loves our hottest weather.
After winning a Gold and Silver awards in France, we are sure you shall also find this rose a masterpiece. (DELSTRIJOR)
