Black Forest is one of the amazing roses in the Certified Rose Simply Brilliant Collection and it is truly a simply-brilliant winner! In 2010 this rose received the prestigious German ADR award for its beauty and natural disease resistance.
This floribunda shrub took me to the Winners Circle too! I received the BEST NOVICE award for Black Forest at the Indianapolis Rose Society Show (Read more about the show here.).
This rose deserves the award but not for anything special that I did. I just gave it a little fertilizer and lots of love and it is blooming non stop! The blooms are born in sprays that last and last and last whether on the plant or in a vase.
The growth habit of this rose is bushy and spreading to about 3’ X 3’.
WINNERS CIRCLE….
Truly a winner in a no-spray garden.
