With her deep-green glossy leaves and rich ruby-red velveteen flowers, Ingrid Bergman is the star of the silver screen transported to your garden. She's the epitome of classy good looks, a classic, enduring beauty that will never go out of fashion. Those deep-red rosettes are of the richest red, the petals large and soft, on strong single stems. The fragrance of the rose is softly spiced, and her growth is strong and bushy.
Take a look through the rest of our collection of hybrid tea roses.
Given her knockout colour, you'll want to give her star billing. Planted en masse in a rose border, she really comes into her own, dazzling all summer long with unapologetic colour. Although she'll grow well in any site with fertile soil, as long as it's not north facing, she prefers to be warmed by plenty of sun.
As is often the case with glossy-leaved roses, Ingrid Bergman is known for her disease resistance, showing good tolerance to blackspot and powdery mildew.
Like all bush roses, an underplanting of hardy geraniums works well, elegantly covering their bare legs. In this case, choose a white variety, or possibly a pale purple or blue: bright pink would clash.
Lavenders also work well, as long as they're not too tall, so a cutie like Hidcote would be ideal. Or, for a fairytale combination straight out of Snow White, combine with a white bush rose such as Ice Cream, another award-winning variety.
Just like the Swedish star of stage and screen, this Ingrid has won a clutch of prestigious awards, across Europe and in New Zealand, too. Her good breeding clearly shows, being a cross between 'Precious Platinum' and an unnamed seedling, possibly 'Else Poulsen', bred by Danish rose growers Pernille and Mogens Olesen in 1984.
