Colorful And Popular Hybrid Tea Roses
Dana Noonan
The romantic long-stemmed rose is the instantly recognizable
signature of hybrid teas, and it's what makes them the most
popular variety of roses. Public gardens feature special
sections devoted to roses, especially colorful hybrid teas.
Home gardeners enjoy growing hybrid tea roses that make lovely
floral arrangements. Florists love the Tiffany hybrid tea rose
for its ability to stand up so well in bouquets. But despite
the world famous renown of those fragrant hybrid tea roses,
some expert gardeners say that you can't avoid the fact that
they often require a great deal of care.
Some hybrid tea roses may be better suited to your area's
weather and soil conditions than others. If your location has
humid summers, you should be growing hybrid tea roses that
resist mildew. Drier regions will demand your rose plants to
have more vigorous root systems, to sufficiently sustain them
against drought periods in addition to the necessary amount of
hybrid tea rose care required. Varieties like the Blue Girl
hybrid tea rose require quite a few treatments to fend off
nasty diseases like blackspot.
While not generally recommended for colder climates, certain
types such as the hybrid tea rose like the Terracotta offer
hardier petals and last longer after cutting. Blooming big from
late spring to fall, their colors darken from a chocolate shade
in cool weather to a vibrant cinnamon on warm days! The
Terracotta is one of the gently fragrant hybrid tea roses most
suitable for cutting, as the scent won't be overpowering.
There are even more spectacular shades including the charming
Vienna rose with its fruity orange on orange blend, or the
lilac-toned Blue Moon rose that makes stunning floral
arrangements with red and pink roses. The Elle hybrid tea rose,
a 2005 AARS prizewinner, offers the most striking color
combination of soft pink petals and a brilliant yellow
undertone that makes this absolutely gorgeous flower, with its
scent of citrus mixed with spice, a standout for your garden of
hybrid tea roses!
