Alchymist Rose

Product Name: Alchymist

Product Description:

Alchymist is a striking climbing rose bred by Kordes in Germany in 1956. This variety is admired for its unique color transformation, reminiscent of alchemical magic, making it a visually captivating addition to gardens and trellises.

This vigorous climber reaches a height of 300 cm with a spread of 200 cm, making it ideal for covering walls, arches, and pergolas. The blooms are large, measuring 11 cm in diameter, and exhibit a remarkable bicolor effect. The outer petals are predominantly golden yellow, while the inner petals take on a soft pink-red hue, creating a warm apricot-like appearance. As the bloom matures, the yellow fades slightly, and the pink intensifies, especially in hot weather conditions.

The flowers open in a deeply cupped shape before arching outward, forming a classic rosette bloom with a rich, textured structure. The petals often develop concave formations, adding depth to the flower’s appearance. The fragrance is strong and enchanting, making it a delight for any rose lover.

Despite its lush floral display, Alchymist is a once-blooming variety, with its long-lasting flowering period concentrated in a single spectacular season. Its dark green foliage is functional but not particularly ornamental, and the plant can be somewhat susceptible to black spot.
