Black Roses

Rose Images

The reality is, there are no truely black roses that exsist in nature. Ones refered to as a black rose, are really very dark red roses.

In the language (or) meaning of rose colors, this rose is supposed to mean death, or hatred. The meaning can also be farewell.

Roses with the word "black" in their names, are ones with the darkest red pigmentation.

Some have buds that begin with a color so deep, they appear black, but change to deep red as the flower matures.

Black Baccara

These lovely Black Baccara roses, are one of the darkest red Hybrid tea roses. This is a wonderful, long stemmed rose, that is great for cutting.

It has a very velvety texture, but only the slightest, nutty tea fragrance, to no fragrance at all.

The sheer beauty of the blooms make up for the lack of fragrance!

If you live in the right planting zone (6-10), make room in your garden for it. It's continious bloom will have you cutting roses for your-self, and your neighbors, all season!

The lovely rose images of Black Baccara, and Black Magic, are courtsey: Antonio Motta. View more of his beautiful roses at: ameraroses.com Get more information about this incredibly unique colored rose, and find out if it's suited for your garden.

Some find it a most facinating rose to plant in their garden, if only to posess the bragging rights to owning a "Black" rose. Plant one if you can, and judge for yourself the Black Baccara Rose

Black Magic Rose

This one is a superb Hybrid Tea. As the buds appear, you will notice that they are very dark colored, (almost black), and open to a velvety dark red garnet with darker edges.

Very long-stems (24-28")makes this a great rose for cutting. The blooms are also long lasting, making them a favorite florist's rose.

But won't they look spectacular in the garden, especially against a white fence, or a row of shrubbery as a back-drop?

Black Cherry Floribunda

The disease-resistant plant reblooms frequently. This striking own-root rose provides constant garden color.

Dark Red /Ovoid, Pointed buds, with medium green foliage, are great cutting roses.

Blooms have a light, damask fragrance.purchase Black Cherry Floribunda Plant grows: 3 ft - 4 ft
