GRAFIN DIANA|Hybrid tea rose

🌹 Gräfin Diana — Hybrid Tea Rose

Gräfin Diana is an elegant, richly-scented hybrid tea rose bred by W. Kordes' Söhne (Germany, 2012). 

🌼 Flower & Fragrance

• Color: Deep violet-purple buds that open into a rich purple-red / burgundy rose. 

• Bloom form: Large, full, high-centred blooms (8–9 cm diameter) with 50-70 velvety petals, giving a classic luxurious rose shape.

• Fragrance: Very strong and complex — a heady mix of floral and fruity notes (hints of citrus/lemon, peach, honey, geranium, and gentle myrrh/earthy undertones).

🌿 Plant Habit

• Growth type: Upright, bushy shrub, growing to about 100-120 cm tall, with a spread around 60 cm.

• Foliage: Glossy, healthy leaves — deep green, adding aesthetic value even when not in bloom. 

🌱 Growing & Performance

• Flowering period: Repeat-flowering — blooms repeatedly from early summer (around June) until the first frosts/autumn. 

• Hardiness & diseases: Highly disease-resistant (good resistance against mildew, black spot) — part of the robust “Parfuma®” rose collection. 

• Ideal conditions: Thrives in full sun (≥ 4–6 hours sunlight), in fertile, well-drained soil. Can be planted in garden beds or large containers/pots — suitable even for balcony/terrace gardening.

• Use: Excellent as a garden shrub, border rose, or as a cut flower — long vase life thanks to sturdy stems and classic bloom form. 

🏅 Recognition

• Gräfin Diana has won multiple awards, including the prestigious ADR label (for beauty + disease resistance) and a fragrance award in Paris — reflecting her superior combination of looks, scent, and resilience.
