Rosa ‘Double Delight’ is a classic hybrid tea rose prized for its dramatic colour contrast and exceptional fragrance. The large, high-centered blooms open creamy white to soft ivory, with rich strawberry-red edges that intensify as the flower matures and with increased sun exposure. Each fully double bloom is substantial and elegant, making a bold statement whether viewed on the plant or cut for indoor display.
This rose is especially celebrated for its powerful, sweet fragrance, often considered one of the strongest among modern roses. ‘Double Delight’ grows as an upright, well-structured shrub with glossy green foliage that highlights the striking flowers. As a hybrid tea, it produces blooms primarily on long stems, flowering repeatedly through the season and performing best where its colour, form, and scent can be appreciated up close.
