Fragrant Cloud is a classic, award-winning hybrid tea rose known for its exceptionally strong fragrance and large, high-centred blooms in a rich coral-orange to deep orange-red shade. The flowers are full and elegant, produced primarily on long stems, making them excellent for cutting. This rose has dark green, glossy foliage and an upright growth habit. It blooms in flushes from early summer through fall and is valued for both its intense scent and vibrant colour.
