時間がたつにつれ、花の色は黒くなり、その黒みが増すほどに、ベルベットのような感触は消えていきます。黒薔薇と呼ばれることに、違和感を感じることはありません。
Papa Meilland is a typical flower of black roses and loved for it's outstanding fragrance and deep rich red color. I feel aroma of apple slightly in this fragrance.
The color of this flower turned dark gradually with the lapse of time. The more the color becomes dark, the more the petal looses velvety feeling. I do not feel strangeness from the name which is called the black rose.
