Côte d’Azure™ conjures up the sun drenched sapphire-blue warm waters of the French Riviera. From Monte Carlo and Nice to Cannes and St Tropez, this is where the rich and famous come to play, a winter retreat with golden sun and sands. And from these romantic images Delbards bring us another fragrant golden rose, to add to the Grand Parfums Collection. Large, bright yellow-gold double blooms are held high on long stems above the plant. Côte d’Azure™ has huge 15 to 17cm wide flowers, which exude a glorious soft rose fragrance with notes of citrus and berries. This sweet fragrance coupled with its long stems makes Côte d’Azure™ a perfect rose for the vase–either as a bunch of golden blooms or placed amongst a mixed arrangement as a highlight. This rose adores the heat of Australia’s spring/summers. Mulch well over the hot months and Côte d’Azure™ will repeatedly show off her flowers. It grows into a neat rounded shape of about 80 -100cm. Dazzling when planted ingroups, hopefully the romance of the Côte d’Azure™ will rub off on all who see and smell her.Côte d’Azure™ (delzinsch)
