Hommage a Barbara
is part of Delbards latest colorful “Couture Collection” rose creation.
This extraordinary double rose has intense deep blood-red colorings with beautifully fluted, outward curved petals which age to deeper rouge, almost black. These petals are very tough with a velvety feel, and as the blooms finish their show, will self clean and completely drop off the plant. This will leave a neat clean plant to put its energy into re-flowering again.
Repeat flowering, Hommage a Barbara grows as a neat rounded shrub head. Its blooms are carried in clusters evenly over the shrub en-masse like all great floribunda.
This rose will enjoy Australia’s hot climate! Named after one of Frances most famous singers of the 20th century. Hommage a Barbara (delchifrou)
