(Hybrid Teas) Richly coloured in deep violet-red, the sumptuous double blooms of Royal Parfuma carry an extraordinarily powerful fragrance — a heady, complex blend of fruit, honey, and myrrh that lingers long in the air. Flowering generously from midsummer well into autumn, this is a rose that rewards with both its velvety, opulent blooms and its robust, semi-glossy foliage.

Frequently asked questions

Bare-root Royal Parfuma roses are best planted during their dormant season, from November to March, which is also when we dispatch them. Potted roses are grown in containers and can be planted at any time of year — just avoid periods of hard frost or drought, and water thoroughly after planting.

Every rose we sell is covered by our 1-year Rose Guarantee, so you can plant Royal Parfuma with confidence. See our Rose Guarantee page for the full details.

Often, yes — we grow our roses ourselves and stock varies through the season, so a variety that's sold out can come back. Use the "Notify me" button above to be emailed the moment Royal Parfuma is back in stock.

Royal Parfuma's mature growth range is 90cm x 60cm (3ft x 2ft). Growing conditions such as soil, sunlight, feeding and pruning can affect the final size, so treat this as a guide rather than an exact figure.

Hybrid Tea roses have the classic, elegant rose shape: large, high-centred blooms carried mostly one to a stem, ideal for cutting and for a more formal look in the garden. They typically repeat-flower reliably from early summer into autumn.

Royal Parfuma is a Hybrid Tea rose.
