Rosa 'Opening Night' | Opening Night Hybrid Tea Rose
DESCRIPTION
Rosa ‘Opening Night’ is a hybrid tea rose with rich, velvety red blooms that carry a subtle, sweet fragrance. The blossoms unfold from elegant pointed buds and appear in repeated flushes from late spring through fall, held on glossy deep green foliage. Blooms are long-lasting in vase or garden settings.
Introduced in 1998 under the cultivar name ‘JAColber’, this rose was the first true red hybrid tea to win the All‑America Rose Selections award in 14 years. Its bold coloration, formal bloom structure, and reliable performance have made it a favorite for cutting gardens, focal planting, or classic rose beds.
