Cherry Parfait
The 2003 Grandiflora winner, Cherry Parfait, takes maximum advantage of its shrubby appearance as the background for its very showy color. White petals with a broad red edge create a treat for the eyes. Excellent in all climates, Cherry Parfait’s loose habit makes it a perfect companion plant in the garden for perennials and shrubbery.
Seemingly always in bloom, this attractive bicolor rose is attractive throughout the season, accented by its dark foliage. With its massive dose of color and dark foliage, Cherry Parfait also is an effective container plant.
Very effective in a mass planting because of its outstanding color combination, Cherry Parfait was hybridized by the famed house of Meilland from a combination of Meidanu and Macman with Meichoiju. The Conard-Pyle Company is the introducer.
