Rosa ‘Midas Touch’, a luminous and vigorous hybrid tea rose, stands out with its large, double, intense golden-yellow flowers, whose warm and stable hue retains its brilliance from bud to full bloom. The thick, slightly satiny petals form a well-spiraled flower, borne on long, sturdy stems ideal for cutting. Lightly fragrant, they provide an elegant presence without being overpowering. Its bushy, upright, and well-branched habit allows it to reach a beautiful stature in sunny borders or as a focal point in a warm-toned bed. Prolific and reblooming, it offers several generous waves of blooms throughout the summer. Its dense, healthy, dark green foliage enhances the luminosity of the flowers while showing good disease tolerance in rich, deep, and well-drained soil. Rosa ‘Midas Touch’ brings brilliance, structure, and refinement to the garden while attracting pollinators.
