DESCRIPTION
Rosa ‘McCartney Rose’ is a hybrid tea rose with large, full double blooms in deep rosy‑pink and darker pink reverses. These blossoms—each carrying a sweet, candy‑like fragrance—open from tight pointed buds and appear in flushes from late spring through early fall. Its long-lasting petals and fragrant sprays make it excellent for cutting.
Bred by Alain Meilland in France and introduced in 1992 (United States in 1998), the rose honors Sir Paul McCartney. The combination of its powerful scent, bold coloring, and consistent repeat blooming has earned it awards such as the Portland Rose Society Gold Medal. Elegantly bold yet garden‑worthy, ‘McCartney Rose’ adds presence to beds, borders, or as a fragrant focal point.
