Merlot Rose

Cut from Ecuadorian fields at peak development, the Merlot rose arrives in a deep burgundy that shifts from near-black at the outer petals to a rich wine-red toward the center. The blooms are full and spiraled, with a dense, high-centered head that holds its form for up to 21 days, making it one of the most reliable dark roses for professional studio work. Stems reach up to 60 cm, giving you generous length for tall arrangements and cascading bridal bouquets where depth of color anchors lighter blooms.

Wholesale Merlot roses are a staple for fall weddings, moody editorial shoots, and rich seasonal centerpieces. Pair the deep burgundy with ivory garden roses, dusty miller, eucalyptus, or lisianthus for a palette that reads luxurious without being heavy. In summer or spring work, the color punches against blush and peach tones for high-contrast drama that photographs beautifully.

Each box ships 5 bunches of 25 stems, cut to order on our farm-direct schedule from Ecuador. Upon arrival, recut stems at a diagonal under cool water and condition in a cool room for several hours before use. Ordering bulk roses through Kataleia means consistent head size and predictable vase performance, box after box.
