Common name rose Family rosaceae Life cycle shrub Flowers dark red (summer) Size 3-4' Light sun One of two floribunda roses we planted in spring of 2008. Black Cherry produces velvety dark red flowers from even darker buds, over glossy foliage. Supposed to be fairly disease-resistant - I'll report back on its health as well as its floriferousness when I've had it in the garden for at least a full season. So far I'm impressed with the display of flowers in the second flush of bloom (shown above).

We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston.
