Hybrid tea rose 'Firefighter'
FamilyRosaceae
Rosa ‘Firefighter’, a spectacular and intensely fragrant hybrid tea rose, stands out for its large, double, deep velvet red blooms with thick, satiny petals forming a perfectly turbinate cup. Its rich, sweet, and lingering fragrance makes it one of the most beloved red roses for scented gardens and refined bouquets. The flowers, borne on long, sturdy stems, retain their color intensity even in the summer sun. Its bushy, upright, and vigorous habit allows it to reach a good stature in sunny flowerbeds or as a dramatic focal point in a standalone planting. Prolific and remontant, it produces several waves of generous blooms throughout the summer. Its dark green, dense, and healthy foliage enhances the depth of its color while exhibiting good disease tolerance in rich, deep, and well-drained soil. Rosa ‘Firefighter’ brings power, elegance, and exceptional fragrance to the garden while attracting pollinating insects.
