Its tightly closed buds appear almost black, holding their colour in reserve before gradually revealing deep red petals and a fragrance that seems to grow richer as the flower opens.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        Georges Delbard found the natural name for this striking creation in \u003cem\u003eLe Rouge et le Noir\u003c\/em\u003e, the celebrated title by the French novelist Stendhal. The contrast between black and red is not merely poetic: it describes the transformation that takes place on the plant, from the mysterious darkness of the bud to the velvety intensity of the open bloom.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        The flowers retain their rich dark red colouring remarkably well, even during the heat of summer. Rather than fading quickly into lighter tones, they preserve their depth and character, allowing the plant to remain dramatic throughout each flowering flush.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        Its fragrance is strong and intoxicating, with distinctive notes of vanilla that bring warmth and softness to the darker visual character of the rose. On a gentle breeze, the perfume travels beyond the plant, making Le Rouge et Le Noir particularly rewarding near paths, terraces and seating areas.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        The petals have a thick, substantial texture that helps the flowers preserve their form. This quality is especially valuable when the blooms are cut, giving them a strong presence in bouquets and floral arrangements and helping them remain attractive in a vase for approximately five days.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        The plant develops beautiful, healthy foliage and reaches approximately 80 to 100 cm in height. Its upright, manageable habit makes it suitable for individual planting, formal rose beds and mixed borders where its dark flowers can provide depth and contrast.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        Le Rouge et Le Noir works especially well beside white, cream or pale pink roses, which emphasise the depth of its colouring. Silver foliage, lavender and deep purple companion plants can create a more atmospheric and sophisticated composition.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        This is a rose built around contrast: dark buds and red flowers, dramatic colour and warm vanilla perfume, mystery in the garden and elegance in the vase. Each stage offers something different, making the opening of every new flower worth watching.\n      \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cspan class=\"fr-pdp-close\" onclick=\"this.closest('details').removeAttribute('open');\"\u003e\n        Show less →\n      \u003c\/span\u003e\n\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n\n    \u003csummary\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"fr-pdp-summary-row\"\u003eCharacteristics →\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003c\/summary\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"fr-pdp-content fr-pdp-specs\"\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCharacteristics:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bush rose\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBreeder:\u003c\/strong\u003e Georges Delbard\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBud colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very dark red to almost black\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlower colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep, velvety dark red\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePetals:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thick and resistant\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFragrance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Strong, with notes of vanilla\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColour retention:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very good, including during hot summer weather\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHeight at maturity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 80–100 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Upright and balanced\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Attractive and very healthy\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExposure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUse:\u003c\/strong\u003e Individual planting, rose beds, mixed borders, bouquets and floral arrangements\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCut flower performance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 5 days in a vase\u003c\/p\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery format:\u003c\/strong\u003e Quality 1+ premium, second-year rose bush grafted onto a vigorous rootstock\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cspan class=\"fr-pdp-close\" onclick=\"this.closest('details').removeAttribute('open');\"\u003e\n        Show less →\n      \u003c\/span\u003e\n\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n  \u003c\/details\u003e\n\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n\n    \u003csummary\u003e\n      \u003cspan class=\"fr-pdp-summary-row\"\u003eFrequently asked questions →\u003c\/span\u003e\n    \u003c\/summary\u003e\n\n    \u003cdiv class=\"fr-pdp-content\"\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequently asked questions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n      \u003cp\u003e\n        \u003cstrong\u003eAre the flowers of Le Rouge et Le Noir genuinely black?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n        The closed buds can appear almost black, especially in cooler light.
