What colour is Rose Black Baccara?

The flower colour is the main attraction of Black Baccara.

Blooms can show a range of tones including:

• deep burgundy
• dark wine red
• velvety crimson
• almost-black shading

The darkest tones are usually seen in cooler conditions. In warmer weather, the flowers may appear more deep red or burgundy.

This natural colour variation is part of the appeal of Black Baccara and makes it especially attractive for gardeners looking for a dark rose or black-looking rose.

How to encourage the darkest flower colour

For the deepest possible colour, grow Black Baccara in a sunny position and allow the flowers to develop during cooler weather.

The blooms often appear darkest:

• during cooler spring or autumn conditions
• in early flowering flushes
• when temperatures are moderate rather than very hot

During hot spells, the flowers may appear more burgundy-red than near-black.

Fragrance

Rose Black Baccara has a mild fragrance.

It is primarily valued for its dramatic colour, elegant Hybrid Tea form and suitability for cutting rather than for a strong scent.

Where to plant Rose Black Baccara

Choose a sunny position with fertile, well-drained soil.

Its dark burgundy flowers work particularly well with:

• white roses
• cream roses
• pale pink flowers
• lavender and purple flowers
• silver foliage
• ornamental grasses

The dark flowers make Black Baccara particularly effective as a focal plant in rose beds and mixed borders.

Allow approximately 60–80 cm of space for mature growth and good air circulation.

Rose Black Baccara as a cut flower

Black Baccara is especially attractive as a cut rose.

Its dark velvety flowers and classic Hybrid Tea shape make it suitable for:

• dramatic bouquets
• romantic floral arrangements
• contemporary displays
• mixed rose arrangements

Cut stems when the buds are beginning to open for the best vase display.

Planting your bare-root Black Baccara rose

Unpack your rose promptly after delivery and keep the roots moist until planting.

Soak the bare roots in water for several hours before planting.

Choose a sunny position with fertile, well-drained soil.

Dig a planting hole wide enough to allow the roots to spread naturally without bending.

Backfill with soil, firm gently around the plant and water thoroughly.

Bare-root roses are best planted during the dormant season when the soil is neither frozen nor waterlogged.

Caring for Rose Black Baccara

Water regularly during dry periods, particularly during the first growing season.

Apply a suitable rose fertiliser in spring and again after the first flowering flush.

Deadhead faded flowers regularly to encourage repeat blooming.

Prune in late winter or early spring by removing:

• dead stems
• damaged growth
• weak shoots
• crossing branches

Then shorten healthy growth to encourage strong new flowering stems.

Good sunlight and air circulation will help maintain healthy foliage.
