Rose - Red Intuition

Common Name:
Red Intuition Rose

Description:
‘Red Intuition’ is a dramatic floribunda rose bred by Delbard, celebrated for its rich, velvety crimson-red blooms and refined garden poise. Each flower is fully double with about 30–40 petals, around 9–10 cm across, and carries a strong, fruity-rose fragrance that grows more intense in warm conditions. The blooms appear in clusters on dark, glossy stems and foliage that resists disease and stays pristine throughout the season. This robust variety delivers repeat flushing from late spring into autumn, offering reliable, showy colour in garden beds or containers. In Melbourne’s mild-temperate climate, ‘Red Intuition’ thrives in full sun with well-drained soil and minimal maintenance. Its bold hues, long flowering season, and elegant form make it ideal for mixed borders, rose displays, or cutting for arrangements.
