Beautiful bloom! Can you tell more about Tarantella?

I'd be glad to. It's a Tantau hybrid tea from the 1930s. Kordes used the name again for a different rose in the 1980s, but this one is the earlier one. I bought it from Vintage Gardens a year and a half ago and I'm delighted with it. It seems a bit more fragile than the average hybrid tea. I had to keep it in a container for six months before I could trust its viability in the ground.

Thank you! I will order it from Vintage coming fall, as it is not available over here in Europe. I see from your garden listing that you have some quite rare early HTs and Pernetianas: Duquesa de Penaranda, Feu Joseph Looymans and Heinrich Wendland (among others) are also on our TO DO list!
