    This rose is really very nice too look at...and a very good "landscape-specimen" rose as long as you can get rid of the black-spot so it can grow!

    I just saw 2 bushes of National Velvet grown outside of St Louis. They were impressive in both foliage and bloom. The bushes stood out amidst a bed of mixed varieties for both the size of bloom, and the depth of color. The petals are an intensely saturated red, and extremely rich-looking due to their velvety aspect. A beautiful red rose.
