Description / Rosa Olympiad
This 1984 All-American Rose Selections award winner, named for the Los Angeles Olympics, is truly one of the reddest of red roses, from its early perfectly shaped buds to its final flash of glory. If you're looking for a hybrid tea with disease resistance and a generous yield of beautiful red blooms, Olympiad is your champion.
The fully double, 4- to 5-inch flowers are long stemmed and long lasting. Usually borne singly on strong stems, they occasionally arise in small, irregular clusters. High centered and perfectly formed, they boast 30 to 35 petals, with a light fragrance that bears a second sniff (and holds up well indoors).
Olympiad is a New Zealand introduction from famed breeder Sam McGredy. It arrived on the scene in 1982, earning its name for its selection as the rose of the Olympics. And its pedigree is impeccable: R. Red Planet x R. Pharaoh.
These blooms are ideal for the vase, but also hold their color beautifully in the garden and resist spotting as they mature. This rose has a vigorous upright habit, 5 feet tall, with gray-green foliage. You'll find it to be low on maintenance needs, thanks to its disease resistance. Prune hybrid tea roses to half height or 18-20 inches above the ground in early spring.
