Rosaceae

The Rosa 'Strike It Rich', a spectacular and intensely fragrant grandiflora rose, is distinguished by its large, double, rich golden-yellow flowers subtly nuanced with amber orange and sometimes delicately edged with warm red. Its thick, satiny petals form an elegantly turbinated flower, produced in clusters on long, sturdy stems, ideal for cutting as well as for prominent plantings. Its powerful, fruity, and slightly spicy fragrance is one of its major assets and adds a remarkable sensory dimension. Highly floriferous and reblooming, it offers a sustained succession of luminous flowers throughout the season. Its upright and vigorous habit ensures a beautiful, structured presence, while its dense, healthy dark green foliage contributes to excellent disease resistance. The Rosa 'Strike It Rich' brings warmth, opulence, and a strong visual impact to the garden while actively attracting pollinating insects.
