Olde Romeo

Olde Romeo, Harvey Davidson 1994

Hybrid Tea 

Dark red, old fashioned blooms with a strong fragrance. Blooms in flushes throughout the season. 

Olde Romeo is a very disease resistant red HT and that's rather difficult to find. Can easily compete with Papa Meilland, Chrysler imperial, Mr Lincoln and Oklahoma but is much more healthy. 
120 cm or 4 feet, zone 6b to 9b

It seems that Olde Romeo is about to become very difficult to find as most nurseries don't want to sell it anymore. So if you have this rose and you want to keep it for the future you should take cuttings.
