Description / Double Delight Hybrid Tea Rose
All-America Rose Selections (AARS) Winner 1977
Vigorous and disease resistant, this award-winning hybrid tea has been wowing rose lovers for decades with its striking bicolor blooms, intoxicating fragrance, and fantastic garden performance.
Double Delight was an AARS in 1977, and it's no wonder to anyone who's grown it or simply seen it. Starting out as attractive urn-shaped buds, the blooms open up to 6 inches, revealing about 35 to 45 creamy white petals brushed with deep, rich red. And as stunning as the flowers are, they're just as fragrant, perfuming the garden (or your home) with a strong sweet and spicy aroma you're going to love. The long, sturdy, 16- to 20-inch stems are perfect for cutting, which is great because you will want to bring some inside. However, the ones you leave on the shrub will delight in the sunny garden because the red tones refuse to fade, even in punishing summer heat.
But the attributes of this rose don't stop there. Even without the sensational blooms, this hybrid tea is a real garden gem. The vigorous shrub grows to 4 feet high and 3 feet wide, offering good branching and covering itself in glossy medium green leaves. Its size makes it compact enough for patio containers, while its overall beauty means it's a wonderful selection for inclusion in flowering hedges or even as a standalone accent plant.
