Opening Night Hybrid Tea Rose brings the timeless beauty of a true red rose to sunny garden spaces with confidence and staying power. A 1998 All-America Rose Selections winner, it produces large, high-centered 4–5" blooms with velvet-textured petals that do not blue or fade as they age.
Rich red color that holds beautifullyOpening Night gives gardeners the kind of saturated red color that makes a rose bed feel polished and intentional. Each bloom carries 25 to 30 petals and stands out clearly against dark, leathery, blue-green foliage, creating sharp contrast from late spring through the first frost. Because the flowers maintain their intense coloration even in high heat, you can count on a vibrant display through warm weather without losing the classic red rose look.
Cutting stems with a professional finishThis hybrid tea rose is especially rewarding for gardeners who like to bring flowers indoors. Its exceptionally long, straight stems and strong petal substance make it well suited for long-lasting, florist-quality bouquets. Whether you cut a single stem for a vase or gather several for a more formal arrangement, Opening Night offers structure, color and classic rose form that feel elegant in the home as well as in the garden.
Strong growth with easier seasonal careOpening Night maintains a vigorous, upright habit with sturdy, well-branched growth, giving the plant a dense, structured appearance in formal beds, rose gardens or focal-point plantings. Its natural resistance to common diseases and pests helps reduce the need for frequent chemical interventions, making it a practical choice for gardeners who want high-impact rose beauty with less maintenance. The result is an award-winning red rose that offers lasting color, strong stems and dependable garden presence.
