Loving Memory is a red rose with thick, velvety petals; the outer ones reflex slightly to present the whirlpool of intricate loveliness in the centre of the flower, each of which can reach up to 12 cm across and contain 40 petals! The fragrance is mild and slightly sweet.
There are many red hybrid tea roses out there, but not all of them have this same gorgeous brightness, sophistication and stamina.
Each stem produces only one flower, so it is important that the foliage is up to snuff. This variety has quite bright, lightish green leaves that are stubbornly disease resistant and provide a fitting foil to the tremendous flowers.
Plant in full sun for the best blooms, and because this rose is all about flowers rather than scent, you can plant it anywhere it can be seen.
Because hybrid teas are quite formal, upright things, we like to contrast them with a slightly unruly rambling rose like Rambling Rector if you have the space, or Adelaide d'Orleans if you don't.
Germany has a thriving rose business, where this one was introduced by Reimer Kordes in 1981. It has become THE bereavement rose, and what more lovely a tribute could there be planted by a gravestone or in your garden?
