This award-winning hybrid tea rose stands out for its rich red colour, velvety texture and traditional oldrose fragrance. Winner of the AARS in 1953, Chrysler Imperial has been a favourite in gardens across the country ever since. The 4–5" rounded, fully double blooms feature 45–50 petals each, forming elegant, long-stemmed flowers ideal for cutting. With proper watering, this heat-loving rose rewards growers with a long season of impressive, repeat blooms.
