Red Standard Rose
'Ruby Wedding Day'
- This rose really does make for the perfect 40th wedding anniversary gift, producing its spectacular red double blooms in abundance throughout the summer months.
- Trained as a standard and growing to just a metre (or so) in height, this rose is perfect for pot-growing on a sunny patio or balcony.
- A hybrid tea rose, these flowers are about as iconic as they come, and wouldn't look at all out of place thrown at the feet of opera singers!
- Another thing about these blooms is that they make for excellent cut flowers, looking fabulous in bouquets and arrangements.
