Rosa ‘Hot Cocoa’

Rosa 'Hot Cocoa' is a Weeks shrub rose bearing indescribable velvety red blooms overlain with smoky orange and purple.

Rosa ‘Hot Cocoa’ is a distinctive Weeks floribunda rose whose unique colours are nearly impossible to capture in a photograph. You need to see them in real life. Bloom colours can vary with the weather and with the age of bloom ranging from rusty orange red to pinkish orange red overlain with a smoky chocolate or purple cast. It’s a rose unlike any other. A nice fruity, spicy fragrance and shiny, healthy, disease resistant, rich green foliage complete the show. It will grow 3-4 feet high and 5 feet wide but can be kept less wide with yearly pruning.
