Fragrant Charm Rose

Description:
The Fragrant Charm Rose is a captivating hybrid tea rose celebrated for its brilliant red, double blooms and intense, sweet fragrance. Developed by Kordes and introduced in 1984 under the cultivar name 'KORzaun', it is also marketed as 'Royal William' and 'Duftzauber'. This rose produces large, high-centred flowers with approximately 45 to 48 petals, each bloom exuding a strong, spicy-sweet scent. The plant exhibits a vigorous, upright growth habit with dark green foliage, providing a striking backdrop to its vivid red flowers. Notably, the Fragrant Charm Rose is a prolific bloomer, offering a continuous display of colour and fragrance from late spring through autumn. Its long, sturdy stems make it an excellent choice for cut flower arrangements. Thriving in full sun and well-drained soil, this rose demonstrates strong disease resistance, making it well-suited to Melbourne's climate.
