Treat yourself or your best gardening friend to this stunning hybrid tea. Fragrant Cloud does exactly what its name suggestsenvelops you in an intriguing scent that combines the clove-y aroma of pumpkin pie with a floral sweetness and a deep, rich rose fragrance. One sniff will make a convert out of you, even before you see the huge, coral-washed blooms.
Even if it weren't fragrant, this rose would endear itself with its color and form. The deep orange blooms suffused with coral measure 5 inches across and have the symmetrical, long-lasting form of the finest hybrid teas. Cool weather enhances the color of the flowers, making Fragrant Cloud a good choice for northern and late-spring climates.
Arising in early summer, the flowers are backed by glossy, dark green foliage on robust plants 4 to 5 feet tall and 4 feet wide. A good choice for a hedge or the back of the border, this rose is well-branched and dense.
