Very large, double, shapely, very fragrant blooms are borne on strong sturdy stems; strong mauve-maroon colour. So, if you like big, fragrant blooms it is a “must have” variety.

This unique rose was voted the world’s second most popular rose after ‘Peace’ in 1979. Pointed, medium sized, clear pink buds unfold into fairly large clusters & individually on long stems; ideal as a cut flower; tall & floriferous; ideal for background planting, in beds or in pots; fragrant.

Rahle Lurie, with her husband Steve, is an avid rose lover. This variety flowers prolifically, covering the medium high bush with fragrant, salmon to coral pink blooms. They are of a typical exhibition shape and are a delight to look at.

Randfontein Gold KORsion

‘Randfontein Gold’ is not just another yellow rose. Indeed, we dare to classify her as a grandiflora to rank with ‘Queen Elizabeth’. Clear, golden yellow, egg shaped buds unfold to reveal shapely double blooms. Tough, green foliage & vigour are additional characteristics, making this rose an excellent addition to mass displays, hedges & background plantings.

No, it is not your intution - she is REAL. Her uniqueness lies in her dark red stripes, splashed over a basic, lighter red colour; interesting without being gaudy. She is a vigorous, tall growing bush which produces long stems which last extremely well in water.

The buds are pointed & slender with firm petals unfolding slowly into long lasting, attractive half open blooms; soft porcelain pink colour. The bush is vigorous & free flowering.

To commemorate the 90th birthday of Roedean School, Jhb, the committee looked for a completely different rose - combining the past, present & future. They found their requirements in this rose. Pointed buds unfold their firm petals in variations of pink & white, developing into camellia formed flowers.

This rose will quickly grow into a stately bush, neat and upright, carrying its shapely, firmly petalled blooms proudly upright on sturdy stems. The deep cognac colour of the bud flows to hues of deep cream and honey gold in the opening bloom. They have a good vase life and exude a distinct sweet, honey fragrance. With its natural vigour and healthy large foliage, this variety will perform happily in mixed rose beds or in groups on its own.

Statuesque, 2m high and densely branched, covered with healthy glossy foliage, producing light yellow, shapely big blooms in an incredible abundance. A truly multipurpose rose - for growing in pots, as beds, specimens and even hedges.

Classically shaped, pointed buds develop into very large, full & elegantly shaped deep magenta-pink blooms. The bush is vigorous, healthy & strong growing with the ability to produce & carry the large blooms in rich abundance.

Rudi Claase is making a name in the music scene in South Africa as composer and performer. The white rose he has chosen produces large, shapely blooms on long strong stems. The bush is rugged and grows to chest height.

A red rose is the symbol of romance & love. A rose to be known simply as ‘Rooi Rose’ has to be very special. This one combines the expected aspect of clear, velvet-red, shapely pointed buds & carries them on strong stems. They flower abundantly, all season long. In the shortest time, bushes grow into large, dense specimens, providing large, shapely blooms.

This vigorous rose produces long straight stems, virtually thornless, carrying golden yellow blooms with a touch of pink on the petal edges. The deep green, glossy foliage is disease tolerant. A rose which performs with ease.

Hybrid Tea

Named for the ‘Reach for Recovery’ support group which helps women to cope & recover from breast cancer. Globular buds develop into large, very full, double blooms with a medium pink hue; a good picking rose; healthy & prolific.
