Red roses are prized for their elegance and style—and Opening Night is simply stunning. Bred from two of the best red roses of all time, Olympiad and Ingrid Bergman, this superstar has inherited its elegant bloom form and superior garden performance from its parents. The large, classically shaped flowers are borne on long cutting stems—making them ideal for cutting and gifting to others. The heat-tolerant and vigorous plants have matte, dark green leaves. Opening Night Hybrid Tea Rose is a 1998 All-American Rose Selections winner and gives a glittering performance year after year both in the garden and in a vase. PP11235
