Common Name: Papi Delbard Rose

Description: The Papi Delbard Rose is a vigorous climbing variety introduced by Georges Delbard in 1995, named in honor of the patriarch of the Delbard family. This rose features fully double blooms in a harmonious blend of apricot, pink, and orange hues, exuding a powerful, fruity fragrance with notes of citronella, rose, grapefruit, apricot, peach, and lychee.
