Deep red blooms carrying around thirty petals each
The Red Parfum climbing rose tree boasts a very distinctive fragrance, as its name suggests. It became available in 1972 and was an immediate success, to this day.
Both powerful and long-lasting, it will enchant you especially if your rose tree isn’t too exposed to the sun.
Its flowers, made up of around thirty petals, are 2 ½ to 3 inches (6 to 9 cm) across and are a dark and mysterious deep red. This is a repeat-blooming variety.
Train it up a lattice near a walkway or along an arbor so you can benefit from its delicious scents right near the house!
