Firm, black buds open slowly, developing into shapely, medium sized flowers with very firm petals.
The deep velvet-red of the half open bloom glows in the sun & does not fade or change until the petals eventually drop.

Carried on long, slender stems, the blooms make ideal cut flowers.

The bush grows vigorously upright & flowers profusely.
